Beauty is in the eye of the mom who gives you an ugly cut...
Here he is "before" - I had already trimmed his face before I remembered to take the picture 
Here he is "during" the ordeal 
and here he is "after" 
who cares what I look like - my family still LUBS ME!!!!!  |

I think he looks adorable. 
Of course I am of the opinion that when it comes to sheepies there is no such thing as a bad haircut...they are so cute that even a first time home haircut can't make them look bad.

| You did a great job! What did you use? I am taking notes.... |
| You did a great job from what I can see! |
| He's not as slick as Dancer, but I think it's fine. Exactly how mine come out...probably better. And yes, we love them anyway they are shaved. |
I have to admit that I tried to do Cinde. She looked just ok for a few weeks but when it started to grow out 
We really don't have the money to have her done but I found it somewhere.  I will post pics later. She looks so much better now. So from your pics Amanda you did GREAT!!! Don't know what I did wrong but  |
Did you do all that with just scissors?! Great job!  |
| "A dog by any other haircut would still look as sweet." (paraphrasing, of course!) Dexter looks wonderful!! You did a great first-time job! |
| ...would still smell as sweet! |
| You did a great job! He looks so happy |
| He looks great.. really huggable and happy with his haircut. |
| yup - it was all done with scissors......... but I can guarantee you that my Oster Golden A5's are on order!!!!! |
| Hey dont knock yourself, Ive done the same to charlie !! (Oh and my husband who makes me cut his hair too.. I am not a hairdresser, I didnt even work in one as a saturday girl.. I am just armed with nail scissors and logic)
I previously always did charlie with scissors, and while it was a drawn out affair resulting in a rather rough look, he always appreciated the less fur after.. Today my oster a5s arrived.. and the half a$$ job I had managed to do over the weekend of his hed/neck/shoulders/bit of chest has now been turned into a all over back, 2 hind legs, bum, tail.. effect, and wow was that so much quicker.. and hes now fast asleep.. I mean fast asleep not napping, I mean dead to the world... hes happy I got the 7f blades, and Im sure I picked the right ones, its exactly what I wanted. I will finish him off tomorrow. he didnt like the noise much to start with, and was a bit scared, but, after wiping them around him without them turned on so they smelt of him he was a lot happier, turned them on and just held them in my hand and ran my hand around he was happy then, and we were set
(Charlie has a major case of ADD and cant stand to be doing anything too long, so, we have to take lots of breaks but I did all that in 2 goes, getting him to turn and lie on the other side - as he likes to lie for as much as he can - usually is the hardest part) |
| Wonderful job-- he really is handsome in his new
spring haircut! Excellent first hairstyling session!  |
| We'd love to see after photos. I am sure the clippers were much easier on your hands too. Boy would my hands hurt if I scissor cut my dogs.
It would also probably take me days to get it done. I LOVE my clippers. |

It would also probably take me days to get it done. I LOVE my clippers. If I clip Louie it does take days. That's why I have pictures where he has long hair in some places and short hair in others....THANK GOODNESS for a wonderful groomer (who comes to me!!) Otherwise Louie would have a perpetual bad haircut!!  
Personally, I think Dexter looks great!! |
| You did a great job and with scissors too!

Many a time my dogs had that "chenille bedspread" look I've started the Spring haircuts here too... one down, three to go. They are always soooo happy and proud after a haircut (we hide all the mirrors so they're none the wiser  ).

| I think he looks great! Just look at that smile! But, hey, I use scissors too! Tried the clippers once and returned them............ |
Heres what I did to charlie
 |
| You did a good job. Well Done

| This post inspired me to clip Ava myself.....bad bad bad idea - I have now been inspired to have a groomer do it next time. She is much cooler though. I suppose having the cone on her head (waiting for her eyes to heal up) does not help the image either. |
