(I posted this in the product section but got no answer so maybe it fits better here)
Hi guys, I was wondering who in here trims their own furbaby?
I bought an electronic clipper (sort of like the ones used on men's hair) which was supposedly for dogs but it does absolutely nothing on Gucci's hair.
I put the 1/2" thingy on but doesn't seem to cut and if anything it seems to pull his hair.
His coat is so silky and light. It's not mad curly but a bit wavy and when long it's actually straight.
I really need to get a good trimmer b/c his hair grow so fast and I'd like to do it myself.
The only groomer on the island is on the Frenchside and since she's the only on she's ALWAYS full. At times I have to wait 1-2 weeks for an appointment!
Does anyone have/know a trimmer/clipper they recommend that can cut through my baby's hair?

Thanks in advance for your response!
