Hi
How old is your puppy, It will take a while to grow.
Options:
1) If you cut it now in a few months you will have the same problem again.
2)You can trim it tip of the hair sticking out , like just take of like 2 cm.. yourself this will promote the area to grow. That is a very mall amount you will not notice the difference.
Then you can use some holding gel or hair spary untill the area grow in long enought to go in a bow.
I also have the same issue. Most of chelseys hair goes in a bow , but there is just one pice that is still not long enough I just put a little bit of #A system invisible holding gel. There is a picture of it below in the link.
It works great.
Below is a wonderful resource that will show you how to do the top knots as well.
Get some of those rubber bands they really do work and you need the hair paper.
This will also hold the hair in place.
When I used to do chelsey top knots before she would take them out by the second day. Well this pictorial reall helped. I was missing one step. Now her bow stay in for the week , they don't fall out anymore.
