Korean Style Grooming

[yorkietalkjilly]

I understand the different aesthetic but do not agree with dressing dogs like dolls or little girls or dressing children like thugs, whatever the origin of culture.

I never said I agreed with it either.

Your comments did result in my becoming defensive kind of implying I had to know something I already did know so that was my only reason for replying. I shouldn't have said anything.

Another thing about the weather over there right now...it is sooo humid & they get a lot of rain in 100+ degree weather. So they do shave down the fur babies for their comfort. I found some Japanese style photos...enjoy! These are not as 'dolled' up.

And all they have to do is stand there looking sweet and cute and not feel all that stuff.

And my dog gets to be a dog.

The groomer actually also makes dolls lolll she has them on her site.

Are they BJD bc those I am in awe with. Those that can sculpt and mold them from scratch and then do the face up and clothes. I am an artisan from start to end, but these ones are crazy! In a good way.

That's Ball Jointed Dolls, right? I think they are. I'll PM you her site so you can check it out.

Oh, I love balljointed dolls, the bigger the better to dress in little girl's dresses which are easier to find! I think maybe the women who have little girls in those Tiara Pagents and such just want something to dress up fancy and look cute, though so many of their children seem sexualized. They need to get a doll or two to dress up fancy and let the little kids be kids.
