| Barrettes or rubberbands?? What do you prefer when you use bows? Would a barrette be better than a rubberband?? I make bows with barrettes, and I like them, I am just wondering what everyone else likes...Thank you! |

| I like the ones with barrettes. I make them for myself and have made them both ways and just think its easier to put the hair up with a band then add the bow with a barrette. If the bow is on a band then I can never get the bow to come out straight when I put it in her hair. I do like those corker bows, I believe that is what they are called, on bands though. I think I even prefer those on bands than barrettes but those are about the only ones.

| Thanks for the input everyone. Now one more thing, do you like the metal or plastic barrettes? |

| i sell more bows with barrettes than rubber bands. I put bows in Sassy's hair and it is hard to get the rubber band bows to stay straight. I think maybe you should offer them a choice. I do. Thanks Melinda Sassy and Simba |

| Sophie and winston will wear them if they are bands but rub there heads when I have barrettes on them. Am I doing something wrong?

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Cali has no problem keeping bows in 24/7 but barrettes she tries to rub out. i think it's the weight of them that she feels them more.

| I'm not coordinated enough to make the little bows straight when they have a rubber band. So it's barrettes for me. (rubber bands first, with barrette on top) |

| With Brody I use a mini extra small clip to hold his hair back. It works well and stay put if he wants it in. My husband is kind of funny about putting bows in my male dows hair. He hazes him. Saw this on a picture of another yorkie and got them. I purchased mine from Walmart. |

| I just use the barretts with a bow on it, but no rubber band. It's quicker for me and it doesn't pull her hair. I like the plastic ones, never tried metal.
