Sorry to hear about the bad experience.
I remember taking my Kimchee for his first hair cut when he was 5 months old. He was shy (still is) and was trying run back to my arms from the cutting table the whole time. Not to mention that the cut was not good. At the end, I was forced to give $5 tip since the groomer did not have any change.
I felt so sorry to have put my Kimchee in such a bad experience. From that time on, I swear to cut his hair on my own, even though it is not the best, he will feel more comfortable for me to touch him rather than someone that he doesn't know. The more time I give him a hair cut, the better result I get. Now even people from the street ask me where I take Kimchee for hair cut!
Failure makes good experience! Try to cut the hair yourself. The first time just cut a little bit, even it was wrong, it won't be that bad. The next time you will have a better idea on how to cut. Believe me...... Now I have one more yorkie girl which I got about 1.5 weeks ago. I gave her a trial hair cut, she did not like the hair clipper and was shaking the whole time. Well, I am sure with lots of praise, treats and patience, she will one day love having mommmy as her personal groomer!
PS. Kimchee loves mommy cutting his hair; he feels so comfy that evey hair cut he falls asleep! Mommy has good laugh during every hair cut session. |
