BETTY

Chuckie explores some Asian Fusion style on Betty the Toy Poodle. This series from Chuckie demonstrates scissoring and clipping techniques on a well brushed and clean dog. This clip works well for owners who are not fantastic at brushing! Chuckie starts the groom at the dog's jacket by separating the head study from the body. For good measure, Chuckie includes a love heart!

Part 1 Great prep and using an extension comb on top of the head will help set in pattern lines.

Part 2 Time to scissor in lines on the crest and ears. Thinning shears will be used to blend and contour.

Part 3 If you do not own curved thinners, now is a great time to invest in them. Michelle uses these scissors to blend and style, leaving Jimmy with a perfect symmetrical face and head.
