Are these pretty much the same thing?

Do thinning shears really work good?

and

What do you use the stripper combs for?

THANKS!

Niether would be used on a Yorkie. thinning shears cut hair un-evenly and "thin" a very thick coat. Stripping knives are for "plucking" the coarser wirey haired terriers coats.

Thanks!!! I am making a birthday wish list and was adding items to it.

I was thinking about getting something for Mojo's face, because, he has a tiny little head, but his hair is sooo thick/full on his face. It is cute that way, but sometimes, he like it laying more "flat" and I haven't really found a product yet that I could use that didn't make his hair greasy, smelly, etc after a few days!!!
