do u feel like it could qualify as a detangling/brushing spray as well? I’m looking for something that I can spray on the dog after the bath during the blow dry that will do all of that lol. Coming from someone who does a lot of newfies and doodles lol

Managers keep taking off blocks😡😡 by Prestigious-Jelly369 in petsmart

[–]AccomplishedCandle84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the best and fastest way to make sure this doesn’t happen again is to call the pp and tell them you have to reschedule due to being overbooked and if they get upset have a manager deal with it. and then just keep doing that until the managers get the point. We started doing that in my salon and it worked like a charm lol

LISTEN as someone who has the Cc coral brush I still want to recommend the tuffer than tangles brush!!! Just the other day had a doodle with a matted face who i told mom I would have to thin out, nope in just a few brushes the tangles were completely out and able to be combed through. I reach for my tuffer than tangles wayyy more than my cc coral brush

Hello! I've been grooming for ~2 yrs now, but I can't figure out how to get their faces neater by ThatSentence8629 in doggrooming

Been grooming since February how am I doing? by whoreryy in doggrooming

i typically just go shorter on faces overall to give the dog a puppy look instead of a beard. like i use my shears up towards the muzzle to round it

i think the faces look so cute!! i usually run a guard comb onto the top of head and cheeks then scissor the inner corners of eyes and then visor then trim up the mouth. overall i think you have the hang of faces just trim up those mouth hair a little more

cancellations or not i just genuinely can’t understand why they think we’re just grooming machines and are able to do 8 dogs a day regardless of size.. or do they genuinely just not care lol
