BICHON GROOMING STEP BY STEP - How to groom a fluffy dog

This is Sophie and she is a bichon. There, I start by doing a relaxing massage during the bath, so she could feel way more comfortable, and of course, relaxed. The preparation of the coat is the most important step in the grooming process. A good bath, a good drying, and a good brushing, it's what makes the coat look excellent for when I'm grooming them. Now, I will start the scissoring on her legs. I start on the top, then going all the way to her paws. There, you could see that I'm always using the comb to fluffy the hair before trimming it. I'm doing some markings with the curved shear on the back of her leg. Her fur is very firm and so pretty to work on, which means that we need to value the work with shears. Using the straight shear, I will be taking just the excess off from her legs. I'm rounding her paws with the curved shear. Whenever possible, leave their paws on the table while rounding it because it's safer than holding it. Now, on her belly, I'm using a curved shear, and I will also be using the same shear to do her sides. On her legs, I'm using a straight chunker shear to do some finishing touches, and to remove those markings that I did using the straight shear. Pay attention to the details. Carving her, so she looks even more pretty than when she first came. Right there, I'm using the straight shear to do the belly, and to take some excess from the leg too. And there, I'm using the curved shear to remove the marking that the straight shear did, and with this shear, I'm also rounding it very well. Now, doing her beshown face. I cleaned from one corner of her eyes to the other using the clipper. And then, with the curved shear, I'm doing some markings, so she has that angry expression. One important thing that I can't forget to advise you guys is that don't blow those hairs that we just cleaned. It could go to the dog's eyeball, and it could cause a severe damage to their eyes. Instead, use the comb to take those hairs out. From this angle, you can already see the angry expression. Comment below if you liked this tip, and if this helped you.

I fluffed her hair with the comb first, then from one nostril to the other, I used the clipper to get rid of those excess hair. After that, I used my curved shear to do some finishing touches on her mouth. Now doing her ears, I did some markings from the back to the front, so it looks even. Do the same thing on the other side, always remembering that the cartilage is fragile and it's something that needs an extra attention. Now with the curved chunker shear, I'm rounding her face, and I'm just taking some ends off. She still doesn't have enough hair to get it like a circle, so I'm letting it grow first. We have new dog grooming tips every day. There, I used my curved shear again to take some ends that I saw after I used my chunker shear. To do her top knot, I first fluffed her hair, and then, with the same curved chunker shear, I took just enough hair to get it all rounded and like a circle. To do some finishing touches on her, I'm using my thinner shear. I used it all around her face and ears. Then, on her chin, I just took some excess off. Look at this pretty little angry face, so cute. Okay, and then here, she is all pretty to go home.
