Everyday Hand Stripping for Pets | Replay 📼
Presenter: Chuckie Lund
Recorded at: igroomhub HQ, 17 April 2025
In this short clip, Chux talks through realistic hand stripping decisions for salon dogs, using Cairn, Scottish, and Border Terrier examples. She explains why perfection isn’t always practical in a salon setting, how coat colour and condition affect what’s achievable, and when it makes sense to leave the “fiddly bits” rather than push time and cost.
Chuckie also covers managing blown coats, recognising when you’re down to undercoat only, and the importance of setting clear expectations with clients before you start - especially when hand stripping is charged by the hour.
A valuable watch if you’re navigating the balance between coat care, time, and client budgets.
CAIRN TERRIER
These replays focus on hand stripping for pets, not show or competition grooming. Filmed live at igroomhub HQ, these seminars break down how to assess coat type, decide what to strip and what to leave, and work efficiently with the dog in front of you.
You’ll see realistic approaches to maintaining coat health, texture, and balance, with an emphasis on practical decision-making rather than textbook perfection. Ideal for groomers who want to improve their confidence with hand stripping in everyday grooming environments.
Study notes are included with each replay to help you jump straight to the sections you need.
