QUESTION:

Why is BEST SHOT formulated to be low sudsing? Don't bubbles clean?

ANSWER:

Bubbles don’t clean! In fact they actually make the hair clump together preventing individual hair shafts from getting clean. Bubbles also indicate excess cleansing agents are being used which can be harsh and may dry the skin and coat, not to mention your hands!.

Low sudsing also allows for quicker, cleaner rinsing and won’t back up plumbing. Over time you will save time and money when using Best Shot!

QUESTION:	How often can you use BEST SHOT products?
ANSWER:	BEST SHOT is formulated to be gentle enough on your pets skin and coat to be used every day! Many professional groomers & bathers note how much softer and healthier their own hands are after bathing pets with Best Shot!

QUESTION:

What are surfactants, and how do they work?

ANSWER:

Best Shot products are Soap & detergent free, using only mild non-irritating coconut based surfactants.

Surfactant molecules attach and surround particles of dirt and oils, holding them in suspension within the water. So, when you rinse the coat with fresh water, you rinse away the filth.

QUESTION:

What is "Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein" and why are they important?

ANSWER:

A key Best Shot ingredient used in our protein enriched Wash and Mist.

Natural lipids are grafted to wheat protein, and the blend is given a cationic charge…so it not only bonds to hair and skin…it also provides “custom” conditioning, by focusing more on the areas that need it most.

It gives pet hair better body and control. It also reduces brittleness and limpness with dramatic effects on damaged hair. It makes the coat stronger and healthier. It's proven to penetrate cuticle, provides balanced moisture, nourishes hair and skin, and minimizes pores, for that porcelain Best Shot look.

Groomers note that scissoring is easier and more efficient when using protein enriched Best Shot.

Many owners comment on how their pets actually stay cleaner longer when using Best Shot Products!

QUESTION:

What are Silk Amino Acids, and why do they matter?

ANSWER:

Silk amino acids (also called silk proteins or sericin) are obtained by the hydrolysis of silk - a natural protein fiber. The soft lustrous thread obtained from the silk cocoon woven by the silkworm is converted and used in Best Shot shampoo and conditioners. It gives your pets skin a very soft and velvety feel. Silk amino acids also have a certain amount of antioxidant action and used to prevent dehydration of the coat and skin. Another advantage of protein enriched Best Shot!

QUESTION:

What kind of silicone is used in Best Shot's conditioners?

ANSWER:

Amino modified Organo-Silicons are safe and proven cosmetic grade conditioning agents that bind extremely well with the silk protein and essentials used in Best Shot conditioners and rinses. They actually hydrate, nourish, and close the cuticle naturally. They do not dry or irritate at all.

In addition to being protein enriched, Best Shot's conditioners are "emollient". That means not only do they repair damaged coat, but they also ad slip to coats and release loose dead hair, making brushing a breeze, especially on long coats and thick double coats!

Bare in mind that Best Shot conditioners and detangling products do not use any alcohol or acetate in their formulation at all like some competitive products do. Alcohol & acetate can lead to severe coat damage and breakage, or even irritated skin.

We use only the finest & safest biodegradeable, natural, pharmacuetical, and cosmetic grade ingredients available in producing Best Shot products sparing no expense!

QUESTION:	Why does "cosmetic grade" matter, and what does it mean?
ANSWER:	These are the same high quality FDA approved ingredients that are used in proven cosmetics such as the skin and hair care products that you would use on yourself. Best Shot products are absolutely safe & healthy for animals!
