the comb you are using is too big.. by comb you do mean the 'attachment' snap on kind of comb right? try a shorter one, about 1/8. are the combs numbered? is the oster clipper the kind that has a blade and you can take that blade off physically... or is there some lever that adjusts how close the blade cuts. the reason her hair is slipping through is because the teeth on the comb are too big. her hair may be longer than 1/2" but its layin down flat not pooft like that of a shihtzu. a lamb cut is usually cut with a number 4 BLADE... so i am unsure what blade setting you have it on or if it came with a number ten... but adjust it to the shortest setting, and then use the smallest attachment. |
