Got Cottony hair? Get Cowboy Magic!!
 

Thanks for the tip!!! Does it help with static electricity because my Trixie has a cotton coat with lots of static. Is it the detangler that you use? I could not find a price, how much did you pay for yours?? She does not have any mats because I brush her everday but her hair never looks like it is brushed and you said that with this that the hair will stay looking nice and brushed, that would be so great...

It is a detangler to use after shampooing. And yes, it does help with static electricity! As far as the cost goes, the bottle i purchased(cant remeber the exact ounces) was rather large(approx size of a 1 liter water bottle) and the cost was $16 and change. But a little of the Cowboy Magic goes a long way.

Pictures please!
 

Would you please post a freshly groomed Max photo? I want to see this!:p

Wosie has a cottony coat, and although I love Liquid Silk, there is always room to try something else!:p

I will certainly try posting a pic. Havent done it before, wanting to learn, so this ought to drive me to get it done. Saw Wosie on your avitar - very cute!!!

Thanks!!
 

I think she is a little honey girl, but I am a bit biased, lol! If you need help posting pictures, let me know! It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it.:p

Thank you Jaspermom for offering assistance on posting pics.

I just have to try this. I have horses and a yorkie and cockers that I keep in full coats and are always matted. I found a vet clinic in my area that sells it so next time I take a trip to Weatherford I will have to buy some. Thanks for the great tip.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'm suspecting at this point that BOTH of my girls may end up being cottony, and I'm definitely interested in anything to help mats!

I'm in a "limited shopping" area, so I was excited to see that this product was available near me (probably cuz it's for horses! :p). My nine month old is the one with difficult hair right now, and it always looks "straggly' to me. After washing with the Cowboy Magic shampoo AND the conditioner and then blow-drying, she looked GORGEOUS! Even my six year old immediately commented that she'd never looked better.

Today I finally used the pricey "detangler and shiner" on her, and the jury is still out on that one. I couldn't tell that it helped the brushing process much, OR that she looked much better afterwards. But maybe I need to use more. I was scared to, after you sd. you'd overdone it! Mine was $18 something (gulp!), but the bottle was big, and I can tell it will last FOREVER.

And sidebar, I also got them a new brush at the same time. I'm getting CLOSER to figuring out the grooming process, but I think I'm just going to have to break down and buy one of those expensive CC brushes, if they work as well as people say they do. I'm just tired of having to hurt my little girls getting those mats out! :(

I read this thread a few days ago so I bought Cowboy Magic and love it.The bottle said for human and animal use so I gave it a try. I have naturally curly hair and it is a pain to deal with but this stuff made my hair look great. I can't wait to use it on the Yorkies!

I bought some too after reading all this. I haven't used it on my Yorkie yet, but on my mini-Schnauzer.

I have naturally curly (and sometimes frizzy) hair too - I think I will give it a try! I bought the shampoo and detangler. I just noticed that you can get the products at some good prices on e-bay.

Maybe You Could Also Teach Me To Post Pictures As Well. I Am Going To Try Cowboy Magic Too I Was Just At The Store In My Area Today Wish Stinks Because It Is 40 Miles Away. So I Will Be Waiting A Little Bit Till I Get It.

I just bought this too
 

Hi everyone,
I just bought Cowboy Magic detangler too and their shampoo. The ingredients in the Shampoo seems really herbal and smells great. Haven't used it yet but excited to. Oh and the detangler is a huge spray bottle like 32oz! I got it on sale too for like $10.79 or something at PetSmart. ( horse dept):p

Well I tried this..
 

I tried this the other day on my Lucy and I used WAYYYYY tooo much!! Bummer! She is all greasy now! If anyone uses this, use just a little or better yet spray it on your hands and rub through hair or put it in a fine mister spray bottle. I don't know why I would spray more in her little hair than in mine. I sprayed like 2 sprays in my hair-( liked it) and like 5 sprays in hers!!!? And that bottle sprayer is like the size of Windex or something...What an idiot huh!? Now she is a grease ball after her bath.:D

My detangler didn't come in a spray bottle. ???

I did try using just a bit more of it (say, two dime sized portions rubbed through hair), and it seems to work great. Might look greasy immediately after, but by the next morning doesn't look "producty" at all...just looks soft and natural. Mostly I just find that the NEXT time I go to brush, there aren't as many tangles, and the brush goes through the hair more easily.

I personally cannot compare this to the other popular products that people use on their yorkies, but I'm pleased with it.

Oh I meant the body shine stuff
 

I thought that was what was recommended...the shine/detangler spray...???:confused:

I just bought the detangler/shine bottle for Trixie and Scampers. I used it the first time and it instantly detangled their hair and even got all the mats out. However, I used it on dry hair and it didn't make their hair look any nicer. So since they hadn't had a bath for awhile I decided to give them a bath first and then try it. So I gave them a bath, using their regular shampoo and then put the cowboy magic on their wet hair and combed it out and dried it. Well the end result was amazing. Their hair looked so good, it was so soft and super shiny, they looked gorgeous!!! So from now on I will have to use it on wet hair or right after they get a bath, but I am very pleased with it, I could not believe the difference it made!!!:thumbup: :thumbup:

Huh, well, I looked on the CM website, and all I saw was the same "concentrated detangler and shine" in a bottle that I have, and it talks about rubbing in a "nickle sized" portion.

I wonder if the version that comes in a spray bottle is "concentrated", cuz this stuff is so thick, I really can't imagine SPRAYING it. :confused:

Great tip....I'll try that next time!

I am not sure which was recommended but..
 

I looked at the label and it says "Body SHine" it is in a spray bottle. I saw the conditioner/detangler/plus shine there too..but I didn't know which one was recommended and I thought it was the one in the spray..??

Which ones do you guys have and love? The spray body shine or the conditioner/shine?
Let me know. Thanks guys:D

Well, it was bath day.

I used the CM shampoo, CM conditioner, and then tried the tip of putting the detangler/shine in while the hair was wet.

On my short/fluffy/cottony haired puppy I'm having a hard time telling any difference in anything I use on her yet. But my nine month old with the scraggly, easily matting hair is sooooo silky and fluffy right now! Yes, the comb just glided through her hair afterwords. NICE!~

I don't know if it's just that she's getting healthier since we got her, or if the brush I have now is better, or if it's the CM....or a combo of all...but she's definitely seemed MUCH easier to groom since I got these products!

Any idea how it would work with a silky coat? My boy is not cottony and doesn't mat but I would sure like him to look freshly brushed for longer!

Is this CM good for long term use? I've always heard that the pH is different in people shampoos vs dog shampoos and that only shampoos and conditioners made specifically for dogs should be used. Is this true?

I have heard that but don't know how true it is.

Cowboy Magic is made for dogs and horses.

What is a CC brush?

Thanks for posting! I 'bouts lost hope in finding a good shampoo and conditioner for her. Checking it out today!

I just tried the Cowboy Magic Detangler on Cali and love it. It came in a spray bottle for 18.99 and a lotion type bottle for 10.99 so I bought the smaller size. I put a little bit on the one matt I can't seem to get out and it came right out. It did make her hair there greasy looking. I then gave her a bath using CC shampoo and Pantene conditioner then when she was 2/3 dry I put a dime size in my palm and rubbed it in her coat and then used the blow dryer. It is definately the best I have been able to get her coat to look at home.

I bought Cowboy Magic Shampoo & Conditioner and I love it as well. My dogs look so good, and they appreciated it because it didn't take so long to comb out there hair. I have not tried it on myself but when I bought it at the Supply house they said it was the best shampoo they ever used.

You all make it sound so good, I may have to try it. Do you recommend getting both the shampoo and the conditioner?

Nancy

I just bought the detangler and was very happy with that. I wil try the shampoo when I run out of the big bottle of CC I have.
