ASIAN FUSION
Shih Tzu X
MISS HONEY
This tutorial explores an Asian Fusion–inspired groom with a strong focus on pattern setting, exaggerated proportions, and a styled finish using curled ears. Working on Miss Honey, Sue balances extreme shape with thoughtful symmetry, showing how design choices on the body, legs, and head work together to create a cohesive Asian Fusion look.
The tutorial also demonstrates a simple, low-cost ear curling method for presentation purposes, alongside detailed clipper and scissor work that emphasises balance, proportion, and visual impact.
Part 1 Curling and setting the ears
This section shows a simple, low-tech way to curl the ears using damp coat, elastic bands, and improvised rods. The curls are set before any clipping begins, ready to be revealed at the end for a soft, playful finish.
Part 2 Tail and Legs
The Asian Fusion pattern is set through the body using a short blade, dropping cleanly into the legs to create that classic nipped-in silhouette. Wide feet, flared legs, and a cute flag tail are shaped, with plenty of attention paid to balance and proportion.
Part 3 Head and finishing up
Head and face styling brings the look together, including eye clearing, visor shaping, and a rounded facial finish. The curlers come out, the ears are styled for presentation, and the groom is completed with final tidy-ups and symmetry checks.
