One thing, I am so afraid to do anything with clippers or scissors because she's just such a wiggle worm. I have trimmed the hair off the bottom of her feet but she has 1/2 asleep when I did it. Any suggestions?? |
Yes, hold the chin or jaw hair when cutting around the face. It really important to always point the scissors away from eyes, so even if they jerk the scissors won't go in their eyes. Many people suggest using a baby scissors with rounded tips if you cut the little inverted V above the eyes. See this picture::
