OH THEY ARE SO SWEET! I like the cut! Do you tell them to just leave the hair long for top knot?

Oh my, they are so cute...!!!

Even without the topknot, it would be easy to tell which is which. She looks so feminine and he looks like a little rascal... LOL

Our Bo's hair is not so silky, and it's almost impossible to keep it untangled. And as much as I loooove the long flowing skirt, I had to resign myself to keeping her in a puppy cut (the pic in my avatar was taken before we decided enough was enough... ).

But I did find a groomer who works out of her home... and she lets me stay. I must admit Bo's always been very good about grooming and it doesn't seem to make a difference if I'm there or not. She just sits there patiently and puts up with it...

Yes for my girl I ask them to keep it long to keep in a top knot but for Murphy my boy it is cut short all over.

Thank you for the sweet compliments on my babies!!

OH I know.......I think Mia looks like a girl and Murphy definately looks like a boy. Mia is like your Bo - she has a very unmanagable coat and it tangles easily so it is almost a must to keep her cut short. On the other hand my boy Muprhy has the BEST and most BEAUTIFUL coat ever and my hubby likes me to keep him short so he LOOKS like a boy. It is such a waste since his coat is honestly so beautiful.

Ok here is what I did.
I printed the pictures of sims822257 babies and took them to the groomer.
She said if I get a puppy cut it would be like more or less shaving her She didn't recommend it with her coat.

This is what she did. What do you think? I think it is very cute. I had her cut her tail and underbelly (bath room area) shorter than normal. Then she did a "box cut" on her. Now I got a box cut last time but I had her make it shorter this time, cause of the heat. HOT HERE IN TEXAS WAS IN THE HIGH 90'S A WEEK AGO

So what do you guys think? Anything else you suggest for next time? I notice that I take her about every 2 weeks so far. Maybe now that her behind is cut shorter it will be a little longer before I have to take her back. I hope If you want a picture without the diaper I can get one.

I LOVE all the pictures! I love the shorter hair and I'll never go back! LOL!!

Check Buddy out. I love this cut. It's his first time with it and the
groomer did an awsome job. Left alittle skirt around the body.
Somewhat like a modified Schnauzer cut.

I love this cut ! Will try it next time I go to the Groomer. I will take a picture of Buddy with me.I also have a little Teapot he is 18 lbs. lol.

I think it looks great!!! I will also make sure I ask my groomers what razor level she uses on mine so you can tell your groomers. I promise mine do not look shaved but I can understand it is intimidating to cut so much right away. Maybe you could work towards a shorter cut so you can go every other month like I do.

I do think the cut your groomer gave your baby looks great though - what a doll!!!

Thanks everybody for the pic. I love all the pictures, lots of nice cuts. I got some good ideals on what to do with Fantasia, I had a hard time deciding on if I wanted to get her a summer cut, but know I think I do.

Thanks

Thank you so much for the compliment!! Please do find out what razor level she used so I can try again next time if you would. I really like what your babies look like. They don 't look shaved to me, but that is what my groomer said

OKay I will do...I am dragging their next appointment out this time since we are going on vacation and I want the to get grooomed right before we leave. It will be around the 1st of July when they go back but as soon as I get back I will send you a PM.

This is Bo, fresh out of a new groomer's yesterday.

I keep her in this puppy cut (about 1" long) because her hair is so thick and unmanageable... I like to keep her hair longer around the face and on the head because she is, after all, a little girl...

... plus, she's expecting soon and I want to keep her as comfortable as possible.

The last groomer I had cut the hair over her eyes... I was very upset because it's going to take I while before it fits into her topknot again...

But this new groomer looks like she knows exactly what she's doing... Yay...!
