Mixed breeds are part of everyday salon life and no two coats seem to play by the same rules.
Soft, fluffy, curly, wavy, dense, fine or a combination of everything in between. These coats can sometimes be challenging to handle, especially when the goal is a beautiful, balanced and commercial finish within a realistic salon timeframe.
But with the right understanding and the right technique, even the most challenging coat can become a piece of cake.
In this practical seminar, Sue Zecco focuses on the mixed breeds we see every day in the grooming salon. She will show you how to read the coat in front of you, understand what it needs and choose the right scissor technique to achieve the best possible result.
Learn how different coat types react to your scissors, when to use specific techniques and how to work smarter without compromising on finish.
The focus is not on creating an elaborate competition groom. It’s about commercial grooming that works in the real world: efficient, achievable and beautiful results that suit the dog, satisfy the owner and make sense for your business.
Read the coat. Choose the technique. Create the finish.
