It is so much fun to watch the hair grow in. How long did it take to get the elastic out? Katie at 8 years still gets off the grooming table and rubs her head in the carpet trying to get it out. Some of them snap right away and we have to do it again. (I think she is looking for an extra treat.)

Marilyne: I have found if you have the right rubber bands that adhere to the hair but don't damage and you do it not too close to the head, they are more apt to keep it in. Of course there are always exceptions. I have Shoshi's head hair growing out and its comical now as its just over her eyes but not long enough to put back. Oh that inbetween stage is so much fun - not!

Patches scratched at her head for a couple of minutes then forgot about it. Because her hair is still quite short, I took it out after a while in case it was hurting her because I had to put it quite close to her head! Just a trial run for when her hair is longer.
