Melanie Newman Salon Essentials just a question - after you’ve done the area in front of the eyes with the thinning scissors how do you trim the rest of the sides of his muzzle? I’ve tried and it ended up looking very jagged and blunt looking. Trying to go for a soft look around his muzzle.
Hi SimMerri, it can be a little difficult to get the sides of the muzzle looking smooth, it is technique and does come with practice . I have attached a link to another video that may help, goes into a little more detail. ruclips.net/video/xd9H76nonhk/видео.html Hope that helps.
Hi Mel, just wanted to say I am loving your videos as I am about to embark on grooming my cavoodle. My boy has extremely long eyelashes, can they be trimmed or should I be leaving them long? Many thanks 🙏
Hi Belinda, thank you so much. Yes, you can leave them long. It’s a personal choice. When you trim the fringe you will need to separate the lashes from the fringe and hold the lashes down and then trim the fringe.
Hi Ruth, your question has been selected for our question and answer grooming tutorial. Your question will be answered next Sunday, with lots of tips on how to introduce your dog to grooming around their head💗
Hi Vera, thanks for your note . The basic principles remain the same for a Cavvy to a Lagotto . The hair is slightly coarser on a Lagotto so it may take a little more trimming to get the face looking neat. Hope that helps
Hi Meryl, Yes, Finn is such a well behaved and relaxed cavoodle. Keep practicing 2-5 minutes and day to every second day and your dog will soon stop fighting you. Best Wishes Mel
Hi Maggie and Onica, enjoy the process and spending time and building long friendships with clients and their dogs. And attend lots of seminars and network with other groomers :)

Yes it can be a challenge but the key is perseverance and rewarding the good behaviour . If you start small , little bit at a time they will get used to it. Goodluck.:-)
Melanie Newman Salon Essentials thanks Melanie. I used little treats today to make the prince sit and cut his eyebrows so he can see. I’m sure he will keep maturing 🤞🏽😂
How do you calm the dog and get it used to grooming. Our cavoodle cant sit still and doesn't like sissors or clipper near his face. We try using treats but go through alot just to keep him still.
I recommend grooming your dog every day, so he will begin to understand what is happening. and its not a punishment, that it can be a relaxing time. Just start slow and steady, and build up.
You can for sure, just by combing up and scissoring small amounts at a time. I groom a full teddy head in our video- how to groom your dog in a teddy bear 🧸 trim💕
I’m in Australia. I’ve already got your shampoo and conditioner, but was wondering about the scissors? Due to the lockdown, and groomer being closed, I need to groom my toy Cavoodle 🥰
I would recommend trying Oz grooming world, they are very affordable- this is a set✂️ www.ozgroomingworld.com.au/groomtech-spring-pet-grooming-scissors-kit-set-of Or I have these ones - www.ozgroomingworld.com.au/groomtech-serpenti-shear-straight-7.5-red-eye Please let me know if you need any further help✂️💕
Also my Cavapoo has long hair like Finn, I like her hair long. Do I trim off the ends? Like a long clipper cut? And the bum area.. what do I do there to stop occasional poop getting stuck?
Wow, what great videos. Could you also demonstrate how to groom around a Cavoodle's genitals and tail. I prefer my Cavoodle's tail hair to be long and shaped. That would be marvellous, thanks Melanie.
Hi Sally, im happy to hear you like our videos, we have one being edited now on trimming around a puppies bum and can make one for trimming around their genitals .
2 questions... why use thinning scissors and not normal scissors? Also, is it a problem if you trim his eye lashes? If so, how do you avoid doing that?
I use thinners to blend and it gives the coat a more natural falling appearance. It’s not a problem if you trim eye lashes, it’s up to you or the client. Here is a video to keep the lashes- ruclips.net/user/shortsaha8jThwxiY?si=24IYaV0GmG920kfJ

Hi, just wondering what size Flexi slicker you would use for a mini cavoodle? Love this video. Thankyou! 🙏🏻
How do you get the dog to stay still and let you cut their hair? My 8 month old puppy doesn’t want me to hold her face or bring scissors near her

Thankyou. Maybe more close up shots.
We love our Cavapoo’s hair long. How can we trim his fring to blend with the length of the rest of his hair?
Love your products. Our Lagotto, Vinnie uses Relax. Any hints on face trimming a Lagotto ? Thanks 😊
Hi Vera, thanks for your note . The basic principles remain the same for a Cavvy to a Lagotto . The hair is slightly coarser on a Lagotto so it may take a little more trimming to get the face looking neat. Hope that helps
Thank You So Much. Gorgeous Dog Too. (Oh Sorry Your Very Pretty Too).lol.
😊 thank you
My Cavapoo pup has really long eye lashes. Do I need to be careful not to cut those?
Do we leave these beautiful lashes!!?
How is he so calm 😂 my cavoodle fights me when I try
Hi Meryl,
Yes, Finn is such a well behaved and relaxed cavoodle. Keep practicing 2-5 minutes and day to every second day and your dog will soon stop fighting you.

Melanie Newman Salon Essentials Thank you much!
I was more interested in how to keep my 6 month old Ricardo still like Finn for more than 3 seconds to trim around his eyes 😬😂
Yes it can be a challenge but the key is perseverance and rewarding the good behaviour . If you start small , little bit at a time they will get used to it. Goodluck.:-)
Melanie Newman Salon Essentials thanks Melanie. I used little treats today to make the prince sit and cut his eyebrows so he can see. I’m sure he will keep maturing 🤞🏽😂

My dog won’t sit still lol how
I would recommend to keep at it and practicing with him and his behaviour should begin to improve.
