Grooming Questions Thread!!

I use my double ones for bulk thinning and thinning knots out (i have an old pair for the knots  ;D ) and then the single sided for blending etc its what works for me, but I have two sizes in the single sided havent a clue what length short and long  😛

I have lots of scissors I have just brought them over the years – some I use more than others, ive got two pairs of curved scissors two bigger pairs for poodles. I have one pair that I love they wernt cheap but they are big and quite heavy but so sharp and great for poodles .

[merrow]

well iv just got the one pair at the mo my 2 new pairs are ariving tomorrow hopefully

im gonna get a pair of curved eventually, when iv got enough pennys lol y do we only get one birthday a year lol

Sorry, I’m having another ‘blonde’ moment.  Why do you do anything to the top of the feet between the toes then?  What look are you trying to achieve?

Between the pads I can understand, tidy-up and make even.  Hocks I can understand, they just look messy if not cut.  And front leg feathering at the bottom can also be messy, but top of feet between the toes  …?

A stripping block is what you rub over a hand strip when you have finished just makes the coat nice and bit free
I use a lot of Groomers stuff
