Untangling steps
- Initial brushing: gently and patiently brush your dog's coat. You will see how little by little, you will eliminate superficial dirt and loose hairs. In this first step you will be able to locate the knots and the most tangled areas.
- Generous moment of detangling spray: apply Two Phase detangler to the most tangled areas to help loosen knots. Leave on for a few minutes before continuing.
- Finger detangling: use your fingers to gently separate and loosen larger knots. This technique reduces the risk of pulling the hair and causing pain.
- Divide the coat into sections: comb each area separately with a wide-toothed comb, working from the tips to the roots.
- Bath with shampoo and natural conditioner: in this process we recommend you to leave the conditioner on your dog's hair for a few minutes, so that it acts properly. In addition, in this "conditioning moment" we recommend combing (with your fingers or a comb) your dog's hair.
After conditioning, we recommend applying our mists that enhance the GUAU effect and moisturize the coat and skin.
How to avoid knots in your dog's coat in the future?
To prevent future knot and tangle dramas and keep your dog's coat in good condition, here are some recommendations:
- Regular brushing: brush your dog regularly, especially if it has long hair or is prone to tangles. Daily brushing is ideal for keeping the coat free of knots.
- Proper baths: bathe your dog with natural products (shampoo and conditioner), specially formulated for its coat. Be sure to rinse all products well to avoid accumulations that can cause tangles.
- Regular haircuts: If your dog has very long hair, we recommend taking him to a dog groomer. Regular cuts will help keep the coat manageable.
