Ceramic Iron What iron do you use for your dogs on dog shows??? Do you have battery one? |
I know a lot of people that use a Chi but I prefer the Ion from Sallies.:aimeeyork |
Chi's get super hot. my hair is naturaly curly and fine and thats the only iron that will straiten my hair without the static! i dont know about dogs but its a good straitening iron |
Thank you but are this irons you are talking about wireless or electric? Becouse for shows I need wireless one! |

I like the Chi iron you have to plug it in. It's one of the best irons for a show dog and now they make the Chi with temp controls. I don't have it "yet" LOL Donna Bird Brooklynn's Yorkshire Terriers |

Okay, this thread caught my attention... I didn't know that yorkies' hair could be "ironed" (sorry if I sound dumb :o)... Doesn't the high heat damage their hair???:confused: |

Yes, you iron the coat so the hair sticks together, makes the coat look wonderful when they gait. No it doesn't damage the coat..you use special products prior to ironing. I have the battery/butane one, just for emergencies, but don't like the way it irons the coat. |

Hmm...you learn something new everyday, I didn't know that they/you use straighteners either. That does make sense though doesn't it. Now do you know how many of us nonshowers are going to want to straighten our yorkies hair just to see, I know I do now...curious like a cat I swear... |

I didn't think of that, but you are right.....I just don't wrap my dogs after I bathe them for a dog show....I put their hair up in scrunchies |
I used the Chi at first but it was too wide for me. The Ion Titanium is thinner and works best for me. It's a matter of what easiest for you to use. The thinner is just easier for me to manipulate.:aimeeyork |
irons Thanks for the great info!!! I have an iron that Alex won at a specialty, but I have too afraid to use it. I just bath and dry right before every show. I will look for these other irons. Thanks again, Lynn |

The Chi comes in several sizes. I use the 1/2 inch for puppies, smaller dogs and facial furnisings. 2 inch for those with the truely long coats.... Mary |
