Do you prefer topknot? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I think when the hair grows long on their heads it looks cute sometimes when some of the hair comes down a little bit over their eyes, not to the point where they can't see, but just enough to make it look cute. I've never been a fan of topknots. Most of the time, I keep Sasha's head hair short so it doesn't come over her eyes anyways.

I voted either way since Izzy has always been in a topknot since a baby I have seen countless gorgeous babies on this forum without the topknot and they are precious. So etiher way is fine with me..but sometimes the baby does not want one so that decides it for the owner.

I am not a big fan of a top knot.

I llike a puppy cut best on Yorkies, so I voted no.

Never thought I would but since I've had Bailey I love them. When I first got him it was long and because I couldn't do it right I cut about 3 inches off.

I love the top knot. My DH will not allow a bow, but I put it up in a clear band.

I love the topknot look but Muñeca (baby doll) doesn't like it. I was always under the impression that yorkies were "OK" with having their hair in some sort of bow or topknot. I was almost disappointed that she didn't like it and I tried early on to see if she'd get used to it. Her first groomer put a beautiful red bow in but it didn't last long. We've tried bows and barrets and clips, but nothing has worked. She paws at it until it looks like it will fall off on its own, or like it's pulling and looks uncomfortable. Long story short I love the topknot, just wish my furbaby would too!

I love the top knot ... funny I call it a Tweetie Bird (that's what they used to call that when I was a kid)
I don't know if Odie likes it though. He definitely will not wear a bow. I've tried and he gets it out right away. He does let me use the tiny elastics but I have to fix it 2 or 3 times a day. I wrap it around the middle to the top, not low to his head and I make certain that no hair is pulling or that it is too tight. He leaves it alone and I found shades of blue elastics at the dollar store. So he wears white, baby blue, dark blue and a teal colour. I was just wondering recently if I should cut the top short and forego the top knot but he looks soooo cute ... I did have to trim his ponytail because it was getting way too long. My husband is very happy he won't wear a bow ... bows are not for boys he says!!! LOL ... my daughter and I try them every so often anyway.

I love the topknot, usually I do GiGi's is pigtails but she would prefer I left her hair alone.

LauraLove · 01-06-2009, 10:00 PM

Bentley is still too young, and doesnt have enough hair for a top knot, but I cant wait till he can have one! my boyfriend isnt too keen in the idea, especially since hes a boy pup, but i insist he has one! i think its so cute, plus it keeps the hair out of the eyes...

Yorkieforme · 01-07-2009, 12:39 PM

I love the topknots!! They are just so "YORKIE"!! LOL....Kiki hates having one though...and she will rub her head on anything to get it out! LOL

magic123 · 01-07-2009, 04:47 PM

magic wears a topknot every day. have been doing it since he was 8 weeks and he is going to be seven. it does not bother him i guess it is just a way of life for him. i do take it out at night so he sleeps without one to give the top of his head a rest.

YorkieShadow · 01-08-2009, 12:03 AM

Yes I do, But I love them with out it too, both ways are cute.
