I can't express how grateful I am for this video! I've been hesitant to hand strip my own Irish because I was afraid I would hurt him by doing it wrong. This gave me the confidence to finally give it a go and my pup looks great now!!!
This made us so happy! It is literally the reason why we have decided to start uploading our videos. Thank you so much!
I started a grooming course here in Madrid and I can say that your videos help me a lot!! You explain yourself pretty well and is easy to follow. Appreciated!
That’s amazing to hear, thank you! We wish you all the best with your grooming course ❤️
So much work for one lucky doggo! Lovely to see these traditional techniques still being used 😊
It is a long but very rewarding process ❤️ Thank you!
It’s so strange that I haven’t been able to find a groomer who shows how to hand strip the face and ears, and it would be great to know which knives you use.
Great video !! Thanks for making - love my Irish Terrier
Aw, thank you! I am happy you enjoyed it! They are such a stunning breed ❤️
Do you have a video on hand stripping a wire fox terrier? I have a WFT and an Airedale that need to be hand stripped and im trying to learn how to do it myself
beautiful groom! you are incredible with your dogs! you have a amazing salon set up
Thank you!! Such a lovely comment! 🤍
Lovely video! That dog looks so good afterwards. I have a standard schnauzer, who’s coat takes a very long time before it’s ready partly due to him being castrated. He will get little Bumps with crusts if we do it too soon.
Thank you! So pleased you enjoyed the video.
That’s great that you’ve noticed and listened to your dog’s skin needs.
What a beautiful job you did, amazing! Looking at this breed, a bit intimidated on if the stripping is something I could keep up with...didn't know it should be done every 8-12 weeks!
Thank you! For competitions, we used to focus on the flat work, and could be done from as little as every 3 weeks. 🐾
Wow she looks amazing.
I Wish I could find a groomer who is as knowledgeable as you
Thanks so much Matt! That’s so kind, I’m sure you will find your perfect groomer!
Love this video thank you very helpful and educational. I'm currently doing my level 2 and work part time in a groomers. I did my first hand stripping yesterday just need to quicken my technique.
That's so nice to hear and we're so glad that our video helped.
Don't worry, speed will come with time. Enjoy your course
I'm struggling to find a groomer to hand strip my 5 month old wire fox terrier. This video was great and makes me want to give it a go myself. A video with a wire fox terrier would be great. First timers would be even better!
Hey! Sure we can definitely film one when we get one in 🐾
Great video you have a lovely personality & Irish terriers are a cracking breed of my favourites. Good work 👍🍀☘️
Oh that’s so kind! Thank you so much!
I agree, they definitely are! 😀
Love this video, thank you!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed 🐾
OMG, beautiful! Miss my Irish Terriers, will go back next dog.
They definitely are a great breed! 🐾
You make handstripping seem so easy! Would love to see a mini schnauzer.
Hey! Oh thank you so much!
All my schnauzers at the moment are clipped, I’ll try and do a clipped video though.
If we have a hand stripped schnauzer book in I will do a video too.
Thank you.
Thank you for the video! great info! Any videos on standard wire hair Dachshunds?
Great look!😊
Thank you!! 😊
Would you strip an irish wolfhound in the same manner? My puppy is about 8.5mo and I've been noticing that I can pull out little tufts of her hair. And when do you know when to stop? Just when the hair doesn't come out? I'm slightly concerned that my knife is cutting her coat.
That’s correct, our lovely Irish Wolfhound are suitable hand stripping! The technique is the same, of course, the style and the lines are different for every breed.
It is hard to explain when to stop, you want to leave enough coat to be between 1 and 3 inches long. You want to avoid balding them or seeing skin. Their coat should look very natural.
Breaking the coat is a possibility when the technique is not correct. Make sure to pull in a straight line avoiding wrist movements.
I hope this has helped! Good luck ❤️
Wow the difference between this and people who shave (I heard about this technique watching a video about an Airedale terrier who was shaved once too often) and they talked about this and how the coat looks amazing if it is kept up this way.
Girl with the dogs? That's where I just came from 😂
Great video. Thanks
Thank you! We’re glad that you enjoyed watching it 🐾
My dog loves this place
We are so happy to hear that!
That was awesome!
Woo woo! Thank you so much 😀
Great video! What stripping knife is this?
Hi! Thank you for this, it is very informative. We are in love with the Irish Terrier having lost our 9.5 year old girl a year ago to cancer. We now have a 4 month old IT pup and I want to hand strip her myself. Can you recommend any products to start? Of course you needn't mention brands, but do I start with coarse, medium or fine stripping knives? I am about to order online. It is very hard to find a groomer who hand strips where we live (Canberra Australia).
Hello! Thank you for this lovely comment. So sorry to hear about the loss of your love. We have a video on our TikTok where it shows what tools we use and what to buy. You would need all three types of stripping knives, as each one is used for a different area. For example: the fine tooth is for details around the face, where as coarse would be used more on the jacket (if required). Hope that helps 🐾
I am long time IT owner....two previous (not at same time) that had a long life and now have a 3 1/2 year old girl that is the best of them all. Extremely affectionate yet protective of the family.....she doesn't like it if my wife or I scold one of our own kids for something ;-) I have always hand stripped myself or had a groomer do it. Extremely hard to find a groomer that knows or is willing to hand strip and clippers will ruin the coat. What is thre best way to know when the coat is at the optimum point for stripping? I usually go by when it is coarest but not sure if that is correct.
They are amazing companions!
The hair cycle varies from dog to dog, based on their environment and hormonal levels.
When ready the coat is harsh, wiry, and it is very easy to pull out.
Wow such a beautiful tamed breed i need one.
They are a lovely breed, she was such a good girl too
Headphone warning: The volume shoots way up after a few seconds.
Apologies 😅 We are still working on the video editing skills! Thank you for the heads up!
Thank U!
You’re very welcome! Glad you enjoyed watching!
Can you tell how far to go on Irish Wolfhound’s beard? What is their “tell “?
With Irish Wolfhounds the goal is to maintain a natural look and therefore there are not these types of signs indicating a specific area to be taken tight.
Ideally, you want to have a rugged look and pluck unruly hairs that are distracting from the outline of the dog 🐾
Airedale Terrier, next!!!!! Mine takes *FUREVER* 😂😭
I knowww! We do one, her name is Gerti! We will make a video next time 🙌
At what age should and Irish have the 1st strip? mine is just over 6 months . Great video. Thank you
Hey! As long as they have got a good undercoat and wire hair they’re good to go. Even if it’s for a light strip to encourage growth and get them used to the grooming world.
I have quite a few stripping blades but not as wide as yours. I striped my Airedales and Rough Jack Russell’s for years. What brand and where can I get a stripping comb like the one you use. Love it. Thanks in advance
Lovely, I absolutely love Airedales!!
The brand is called Hauptner and I’m sure you can find it on Amazon too 😀
@@hackneybarkers lol, I have the Haupners. I guess it just looked larger to me in the video. Excellent knives. Thank you, great video. And great job.
Love this. Can you do a video on a Westie?
Thank you! We currently don’t have a hand strip westie in our salon but I can show a video of me doing a clipped breed standard trim. Is that something you’d like to see?
Do you have recommendations for hand stripping tools for people who want to do it at home?
Hey 👋 Definitely! We can make a video about it if you’d find it helpful 🤍
Do you ever hand strip Golden Retrievers? Can one strip undercoat while leaving guard hairs intact? My service dog loves to be groomed and I inadvertently balded him once with a Furminator. He enjoyed the attention so much I lost track. Looking for a gentler way to de-shed so he doesn't give off floofs while he works.
Hi! Aw it’s such a nice bonding experience when they enjoy it too! I like to use a coat king but … accidental balding can happen too!
@@hackneybarkers It's a wonderful bonding experience - you're right. I had a bit of time outdoors today waiting for someone. I took off his vest and hand stripped his coat (with just my fingers). It was great. I didn't have to worry about stopping while he still had hair.
His coat _literally_ sparkles now. (Really - his top coat has glittery strands.
So cool. Thanks for the tips. 🥰
So no powder- stones or anything needed ?I don’t want to buy any unnecessary products. As I have seen so many ways of hand stripping. I’m confused. Thank you
Stripping can be done without any tools.
However, using chalk powder and stripping knives eases the process.
Chalk powder helps grip the dog's coat better, while stripping knives provide an effective way to remove dead hair, reducing the time and effort required while ensuring a polished and professional finish.
@@hackneybarkers Thank you for the feed back :)
Do you trim the eyes or hand strip that too?
Hey! All hand stripped. Just plucking and shaping. 🐾
Do you do the same with Airedale Terriers ?
Hi, no they have a brick shaped head, the line is from the eye to the mouth. Leaving the beard full 🐾
From start to finish, how long did it take to groom him?
Hi, it took me 3 hours 🐾
Pleas more irish Terrier's 💕💫🙏💫💕
Thanks Rachel! We’ll try and video one of our clipped ones 🐾🤍
Great video. She’s beautiful. Can I ask why her tail isn’t stripped underneath?
Hey Claire! So pleased you enjoyed the video!
The owner requested a little bit of length and also a fluffy tail. We didn’t mention it on the video hoping someone would ask. Great spot!
Ah I see, wondered if I was stripping mine wrong for a sec there 😄 amazing job, she’s lovely! Really fond of this breed.
@@clairemacgregor4676 not at all! By stripping the tail you are absolutely achieving the breed standard look.
I agree, they look so smart. Thank you so much Claire!
😂 I was wondering the same thing. Was so happy with your great explanation (especially the beard tip. My IT is lying next to me right now and I checked the position of the darker hair! How interesting!!) But then the video ended and I saw the tail. Haha but you explained it👍 thank you for the video
@@frida_173uhl4 haha! 😂 So glad you noticed too! Yes it’s such a fun fact, we’re so happy you liked it!
Could you please do a Welshie?
We would love to! Our Welshie’s are clipped, perhaps we can do a video of him when he’s next in 🤔
@@hackneybarkers thank you!!
The ending. 😅😂😂
😂😂😂 she is not the best at catching treats!
@@hackneybarkers
Indeed. 😅🤣
02:38 what do you do when that happens? Do you still hand strip or do you use clippers?
Hi, when the hair turns too soft and the dog is finding it uncomfortable to strip. The first thing I do is call the owner then I would use thinning scissors if it’s a small area or discuss clipping. 🐾
Can you show how to hand strip the ears?
I can certainly include a detailed demonstration of ear stripping in one of our next videos.
@@hackneybarkers nice thank you and have a great day :)
Do you bathe on the same day as their hand strip then?
Usually we don’t. However, some owners specifically request their dog to be bathe after the groom and in that case we do.
🐶🐩
Dogs are the best!
🐾😎
Looking very smart now!
Great video, very helpful.
Please do not add any music to a demo video, it hurts the ears.
Thank you, I am happy to hear that you have enjoyed it!
Was the music volume to loud or you’d prefer some asmr?
Funny thing is, this is basically how I have to groom my cat. Just, maybe 3-4 times a year
😀 that’s interesting!
@@hackneybarkers Yep. The fur on his back gets so coarse when it's finally time to shed. And they are so tightly set that I can't even get to his undercoat without plucking them off first. And if I _don't_ then it's hairballs twice a day, everyday for weeks and weeks (or his stomach gets clogged up).
Luckily it is, as you say, not painful when the hairs are ready to come off and my boy is very happy for the help 😊
LOVE YOUR LIPS!!!!
