Curly-coated pups aren’t just cuteβthey’re couture-level fabulous, and they need a grooming routine that matches the flair!
π Why Curly Coats Are Unique
Breeds like Poodles, Doodles (Bernadoodle, Labradoodle, etc.), and Bichon Frises that curl pattern traps dirt loose fur and mats like a magnet. Their coats act like soft sponges: absorbent, gorgeous… and needy.
π Curly Coat TLC Essentials
Hereβs how Nicole keeps her curly clients looking camera-ready:
- βοΈ Regular Brushing β Daily or every other day keeps tangles from becoming tight mats. Slicker brushes and metal combs are curly coat besties.
- π¦ Hydrating Shampoos & Conditioners β Moisture is key! Curls love formulas that soften and detangle without weighing fur down.
- π§Ό Thorough Drying β Air drying? Not ideal. Blow drying with a gentle brush keeps curls bouncy and prevents moisture-based tangling.
- π Routine Grooming Appointments β Every 4β6 weeks helps maintain shape, health, and manageability. Nicoleβs expert trims preserve the fluff while keeping things comfy for the pup.
- π Check the Trouble Zones β Mats often hide behind ears, under collars, and in armpits. Nicole gives these spots extra attention!
πΎ Why It Matters
Proper care of curly coats prevents skin irritation, infections, and discomfort. Plus, a well-maintained curl = wag-worthy confidence!
