Great advice above! :thumbsup:

And the good thing about you starting the face cleaning regimen with the Spa Lavish Facial Scrub, is that Alice will get used to the routine at a young age. And it really does smell that good!

I use a baby wash cloth for the scrub, they are thin, so they are easier to use.

Sounds like your an excellent Mama for Alice!
thanks guys :) i'll look it up and see if i can't order any now.:thumbsup:

i think the breeder tried to trim her hair and now its at awkward lengths around her nose and eyes (UGH), so it's not quite long enough to pull back into a band - but pretty close... i'm guessing maybe a month or less? i'm going to try clipping it back with these little flower clips. they're very light, so i don't think it's going to bother her at all. she seems completely comfortable with everything going on at our house, so i'm thinking i'll start washing her face today. i've been using a warm wash cloth, but it hasn't helped much.
i don't want to clip the hair around her eyes because i want it to grow out. i want to put her hair in bands, so i'm just going to let it all keep growing and clip it when necessary.

thanks everyone :D

EDIT: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Goody-Clear-3-Different-Sizes-Hair-Rubber-Bands-1-ct/12018417 can i use these to pull her hair out of her face?

Well, make sure you do it as soon as you can (go back and look at Ritzy's photo) because most people wait too long. It can be put into bands between teh eyes, pretty quick...then hold her, so she doesn't get down right away and rub it out.. she'll get used to it, quickly.

As for bands, go and look at some of the show bows sites. you need very light ones, that won't break hair

i put two cute pink clips in her hair. i distracted her for awhile because she didn't like them at first. i kept them in her hair for maybe 5 hours :)chili:).

how do i know if the bands are going to break the hair? wouldn't the ones i posted work?
