Wishing you a really BIG GOOD LUCK! You can do it

It may go a little slower the first time, so don't forget to check you clipper blade to make sure it's not getting hot when working this close to the skin.

well here it is---i like it--going to take awhile to get used to it though, but it turned out alot better than i thought it would--took me about 2 + hours-with breaks for maddie. i used a big clipper attachment and worked my way down to the smaller one. i know theres some trimming i need to do yet, but thought we would call it a day--a new doo and bath for maddie today!

we took it extra slow and careful

i was surprised though--i thought once i clipped her back she might be totally silver under neath---nope,,if anything she looks darker with short hair, even though u cant tell it in the pics

jadabug · 04-24-2011, 01:07 PM

You did a great job!! Maddie looks so good!! You will both love it for the hot summer months!!! I thought Jada would be lighter too when I cut all of her hair off, but she is jet black, no silver anywhere.

maddieadoptedme · 04-24-2011, 01:17 PM

Thank You. She has a few ruff areas yet, but i figure she needs a break, and so do i, lol. plus i ordered a new curved blunt edge scissors, so ill wait till i get those to do the final trim, they should be here this week. i cant believe it took me almost 3 months to decide to do this, i was so scared. however hubbys not to fond of it, he likes her with her long hair. ohh well--

kinda funny since he didnt like her at all when i first got her, and now hes tellin me how he wants her to look. hahaha.

LOL what is it with men and long hair

My DH was the same way. Now that he is used to it and see's how much happier (especially Jada) they are, he loves it too.

She looks so nice! Thanks for posting. I have all the supplies I need for when Jazi's hair gets longer. She's still a pup (18 wks) but it gives me a little courage and hope to see how great you did!

Perrella · 04-24-2011, 01:26 PM

WOW, you did a fabulous job on Misty!

Maddie looks so good in this cut!

If was pretty easy to do, huh? It just seems so difficult.

Funny you said your DH is not so fond of it, mine is just the opposite...he loves it on Zhoie. Go figure.

i just kept doing alittle at a time, shorter each time, that way if i did something wrong,it wouldnt take long to grow back.
