AmbiStraight™ | Nożyczki proste 9"

Make the most of your EliteTrim 9-Inch AmbiStraight Shears with these expert-approved grooming tips. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned groomer, these techniques help ensure smooth, safe, and professional results every time.

🔹 1. Start with a clean, dry coat

Always bathe and dry your dog before using straight shears. Dirt and moisture can dull the blades quickly and make cutting uneven or unsafe. A clean coat also gives better visibility of the natural lines and helps achieve a polished look.

🔹 2. Use the 9-inch blade for long, sweeping cuts

These long straight shears are perfect for shaping large body areas — like the sides, thighs, and back — especially on bigger breeds. Use long, continuous strokes to avoid choppy lines and maintain a smooth, natural coat flow.

🔹 3. Keep the blade flat and follow the coat direction

Always cut with the direction of hair growth, not against it. Hold the shears at a slight angle and keep the blade flat against the coat to avoid leaving harsh lines or snipping too much at once.

🔹 4. Use light pressure – let the shears do the work

Don't force the scissors through the hair. The high-quality stainless steel blades are designed for precision. Apply gentle, even pressure and allow the sharp edge to glide naturally through the fur.

🔹 5. Watch out for skin folds and sensitive areas

When trimming around the belly, armpits, or inside legs, be extra cautious. These areas are delicate and prone to nicks. Use slower, shorter cuts and always keep your free hand guiding or lifting the skin gently.

🔹 6. Adjust tension regularly for optimal performance

Check the tension screw before each session. If the blades are too loose, they may fold the hair instead of cutting; too tight, and they can cause fatigue. Adjust as needed for the coat type and comfort.

How do I care for my grooming scissors to keep them sharp and effective?:

To keep your dog grooming shears performing at their best, always clean them after each use with a soft cloth to remove hair and moisture.
