Shampooing a White Samoyed

Margaret M. asks if she can use Chris Christensen White on White Shampoo as a second shampoo after using Clean Start Clarifying Shampoo on her Samoyed puppy to remove some residue from last week’s shows. She is showing her Samoyed again this weekend.

Lisa Christensen answers that while it is okay to use this process this time, she wouldn’t recommend it for the future. Clean Start is recommended for use once a month, and White on White should be rotated with Day to Day Moisturizing Shampoo. “Neither White on White nor Clean Start has any conditioning agents in them, and if you continued to use them every time you bathed I'm afraid it would dry out your Samoyed’s coat,” said Lisa.

Lisa also recommends using Thick N Thicker Volume Response Foaming Protein after bathing, and then using After Bath as the conditioner. After Bath has no waxes or silicones, so it won’t make the Samoyed’s coat drop like other products do.
