Finally Found!

I have searched endlessly for the perfect haircut for my Shih Tzu and finally found it. My baby has very long hair that is just very fine and tends to curl so my dreams of having a show coat will not work.

The face can be boxed or left slightly longer which is what i plan on doing, both secured with a top knot. The sides can be shaved shorter (around 3/4") or they can be left long in a beautiful skirt, similar to the cocker cut, which is what i will be doing. The tail and legs are left long, most groomers consider this the straight column effect.

My baby is a 1 year old and will be going to get groomed for the first time in a couple of days, I will post lots of pictures, especially some befores and afters.
