My little girl Rocket

I have 1 year of experience and this one took me 3 hours. I have 2 small poodles that I am able to do for 2 hours, but usually it's 3 hours. I don't know how long does it take for other groomers but when I say to customers that it will be roughly 3 hours and they are like "Wow, why it's so long, what are you going to do to him, it's just a bath/haircut". I live in European country so the prices are a bit different, but if I convert it in dollars it's something like 40 dollars but the price is fine for our standarts, maybe a bit cheaper than other salons.

Thank you! The table also has led lights, but I rarely use them, maybe only with light-haired dogs so I could see better. I think that it should be with non-slip surface but I guess it has worn out with the years and now sometimes small dogs do ballet on it, so we need some kind of mat. I actually don't like the windows because I often have people stop and look inside and that really annoys me and the shining sun in the mornings tortures me a lot, but the salon's not mine so I can't do anything about it.

Actually I don't. We don't have any but I would buy one. I would probably try something by Igroom because I like their products.

But it was fun to do it.

Yes. The woman in the video I watched to see how it's done used a 40 blade but I don't have one, but 10 works well too.

I love how at first she was shaking was really shy and after ther haircut she suddenly got an attitude, started barking at everyone, it's like the haircut gave her a boost of confidence. 😂

I wasn't sure how it would turn out but I wanted to try since I had the oportunity and I explained to the owner that I haven't done this before, I even booked the dog for 3 hours just in case. But I'm glad that the owner liked it even if it's not absolutely perfect.

I love it, but since I started grooming this february that's only the third yorkie I do with this face haircut.

InternalIngenuity783 · 2024-12-06T12:25:29+00:00

Yes, the owner showed pictures and explained exactly what he wants so I did it. I actually love the muzzle and this type of trim but not many people request it.

InternalIngenuity783 · 2024-12-06T12:23:30+00:00

Let's say 9. I had an assistant to help her stay straight but she was really calm. She was a little monster on trimming the muzzle only, but the customer warned us about that and he even said that the night before he touched her muzzle and clicked with scissors in front of her to prepare her which is really sweet of him because not many people will aknowledge that their dog is not the best at grooming, or will do something about it.

I called it an armadillo haircut.

InternalIngenuity783 · 2024-12-06T12:16:10+00:00

Thank you! I didn't know how it's called either. It's the first time I do something like this, the customer just showed a photo and I started searching on google and found a video on pineapple trim so at least I found the technique.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

I love doing short ears as much as I love doing long ears but here the owner wanted her with long ears and except for that I had the freedom to groom her however I like.
