To choose the right clipper blade for your grooming clipper based on the desired hair length for your dog, follow these simple steps. Before starting the grooming, make sure to wash your dog with a shampoo specifically suited to its breed, taking into account coat type and skin sensitivity.
This preliminary step will remove impurities trapped in the fur, such as dirt, sand, or dust, protecting your clipper blade. Brush or comb your dog’s coat thoroughly to prevent mats, remove dead hair, and restore order to the undercoat. Once your dog is dry, you can start clipping.
Choosing the appropriate clipper blade mainly depends on the desired hair length. You can select interchangeable or fixed blades, numbered in millimeters according to the corresponding cutting length.
If you are new to dog grooming, it is recommended to use a number 7 blade (3 mm) to get familiar with the clipper. This cutting length maintains a safe distance between the blade and the dog’s skin, eliminating any risk of injury. Be careful around the ears and eyes. Delicate areas should be trimmed with scissors specifically designed for finishing touches.
It is important to note that the higher the blade number, the finer and closer the cut to the skin, resulting in a shorter trim. By following these guidelines, you can choose the appropriate blade and perform professional and safe grooming for your four-legged companion.
