I do use a 27 mm, but mine isn't his "Gold Series"...hmmm...I wonder what the difference is b/t the "Gold Series" and the one I have (the normal silver looking pins)?

what do you guys spray on your babies before their daily brushing?
I just got in my cranberry fields yesterday and used it last night I really love the way it made Abbigails hair soft and shiny but I didnt see anything to use before I brush her.

You guys are great!!! I am going to get a pin brush!! Now could one of you come teach me how to put a bow in her hair???? SHe looks at me like I am trying to rip her eyes out!! So I have been opting for baby barettes but she is learning how to get those out!! Her hair is always in front of her eyes!!

LOL! I'm still figuring that out myself! But let me know if you get any good tips!

Getting bows in her hair is the one thing Stella tolerates well, but I have a good reward system set up with her also. After a couple of times putting her hair up, not always a great looking job I always gave her a treat. Now when I sit her on my lap and pick up the comb she just lays her head on my knee and doesn't move. Now if she would just get over wanting to be a nudist, she's become a pro at taking her tee shirts off.

Putting bows on these babies is like magic. One minute it's there, the next minute it's not. But I think it takes a lot of practice and your baby would have to get use it to. I had the same problem when mine was a pup but now he tolerates it pretty well and even sits still for me to re-do it every time it gets loose.

well, I work at a doggie spa, so mine go everyday! haha They get bathed once to twice a week, whether at the shop with me or at home. They get brushed everyday, regardless of whether they are in their summer hairdo's or winter hairdo's. In the summer, they get their hairdo's trimmed up every four weeks.

my friend tells me that a 27 mm gold series has more pins, more flexible or soft relaxed cushion and more quality body.
