How to Create a Stylish Salon Trim with Ease
on a Charming Mixed Breed  
Kathy Rose


For this lesson, Kathy Rose puts this little dog in a super cute haircut. It's not only appealing, but easy for the owner to care for, too. Trims like this are what bring owners back again and again. They are the bread and butter of every successful salon.
 
This is a highly detailed lesson. It's perfect for newer groomers who wants to add style and flair to their work.

Kathy works on the entire dog using typical pet grooming techniques. As she works, she explains everything in great detail - and she's highly aware of the audience's view. She shows you how to fix a few typical conformational faults using guard combs, scissors, and blenders. When she is finished, the problems are almost invisible - just what you what. We especially love the sections on the topline, the front legs, and how to trim that super charming head!
 
You've seen Kathy Rose's work in Groomer to Groomer magazine. She writes a regular column called Bread & Butter Grooming. In this L2GD lesson, Kathy captures the essence of her column on video.

How to Give an Attractive Haircut to a Matted Pet Without Losing Time               


Every salon has them... the client that wants a cute trim on their beloved pet. The problem is that the dog is matted. REALLY matted.

Your automatic response is to go for the naked look - #7 all special. But what if you could leave a little extra coat for some style? What if it wouldn't take you any longer to do than a normal haircut? What if I told you it could be done without any stress to the dog? Would you do it?

Amy shows you her tricks to power through a matted coat without dematting it first. She demonstrates shortcuts to give a matted pet a stylish haircut in no time. She even gives you hints on how to communicate with the owner. Plus, she gives you ideas on what to charge for your services.

In the end, this dog turns out super cute. We can't imagine any owner that wouldn't be happy with this haircut. Amy was able to salvage the coat even though it was overgrown and very tangled.
