first trip to groomers

[lilymanson]

I am taking Lily to her first trip to the groomers next week when she will be a little over 12 weeks. Is 12 weeks too young to get her first hair cut? I dont want to spoil her coat as at this stage i dont know if she is cotton or silky. I want to grow her hair so i can put a top knot in, so what type of cut do i ask for? If her coat is going to turn out cotton i shall probably get the puppy cut for the body and grow face hair but at this stage dont know how her coat will turn out so not sure what cut to ask for. Any advice will be much appreciated.

If you want her hair to grow, they why are you getting it cut?


My Hammer got his first cut when he was 5 months old. We got the "puppy cut" on the body and just a trim on his face. I told her i wanted to have top knots so to keep that part long.

I got mine cut at about that age cause he looked like a bad teenager. When we left the groomer I cried cause he looked like a rat with a big head cause I didn't want his face done.
I love his cut now but it took about 4 weeks to feel that way. Good luck I hope you like it when your done.

I don't want her body hair long as she runs around a lot and is usually covered in mud so long hair would mat quickly i would think. I just want it long on face so i can put top knot in so she can wear bows. Think i shall just ask for a trim am taking her just so she can get used to it at a young age and she can get her nails clipped if needed and of course just a wash and groom.

I waited 2 weeks past the day that mine had all of her shots.
