Sustainable Styling: Beautiful Trims for Real World Pets
Sarah Drouin
We all love the look of a flawless, scissor finished show cut. But everyday clients live busy lives, and most do not have time for hours of daily brushing at home. When a haircut outpaces an owner routine, it leads to matting, skin stress, and frustrated clients.
In this practical seminar, we focus on designing sustainable styles. You will learn how to craft functional trims tailored to pet lifestyle and coat type, while matching what the owner can realistically manage at home. Discover how to adapt traditional silhouettes, seamlessly blend shorter lengths in areas prone to friction, and leverage natural coat texture to deliver polished, plush results that last between appointments.
