| rubber bands? Does anyone have a suggestion for the best product to put your Yorkies hair up with? The small rubber bands seem to knot in Kiwi's hair. I have bought barrettes but her hair falls out-still too thin, I think. Thanks for your ideas.

| I use 1/4" latex bands (I think they are the same orthodontist use) and cut them out in the evening. |

| I use the small rubber bands and I redo their hair every other day. That way it doesn't get so knotted up.

| Thank you for your tips. It is good to know it is not unusual that I have to cut the rubber bands out.

| I purchase the small pastel colored bands from the baby section at walmart. There are about 200 in a pack and they are made of a smooth elastisized nylon type band. They seem to not break their hair as much as regular bands..... plus they are in such pretty colors!

| I also use bands to put their hair up, and take it down at night when they go to bed. I add a barrette or a bow after I put the bands in It's the only way I can keep their hair up.
