Do you offer hand stripping?
Yes, hand stripping is available for suitable breeds and coats. We can discuss whether it is appropriate for your individual dog when you enquire.
Hand stripping is a traditional grooming technique used on suitable wire and some silky coated breeds. Rather than cutting the coat with clippers, the groomer removes ready coat by hand or with appropriate stripping tools.
For suitable coats, this can help maintain the natural texture and character of the coat.
It is not simply a different way of making a dog shorter. Coat type, condition, previous grooming history and the individual dog all need to be considered before deciding whether hand stripping is appropriate.
