The basic lines are from the back of the head to the back, hips, and tail, the line down the back, and the lines on the chin, chest, and abdomen. ■Divide the hair in two, hold the other bundle of hair, and brush slowly from near the roots of the hair towards you. For the face, hold the muzzle with your hand to prevent sudden movements while brushing. ■If there are already mats, first loosen them carefully with your fingers, then comb them out with a comb or pin brush before using the slicker. ■Long-haired breeds and breeds with strong curls are prone to matting, so it is important to brush them every day. 〈Volume Up Grooming Method〉 ■First, perform the basic grooming method to remove tangles. ■Next, with the slicker brush in the opposite direction of the hair growth, insert the pins into the hair and pull upwards. (Do not pull sideways in the opposite direction) ●Maintenance ■Remove tangled loose hair frequently with a coarse comb, and when dirty, rinse with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly before storing cleanly.
