Dog Groomer or Teddy Bear Stylist 🧸 People often ask how I got into this industry. Long story short -

I remember stumbling across a dog grooming salon in Hong Kong back in 2017. There was a dog groomer I could see through a window, grooming the most beautiful Japanese Spitz. It was just such a niche career that I had never thought about before. It was a perfect mix between working with animals and being creative. At the time I was on a big overseas trip and I told myself that if I still wanted to pursue dog grooming after my time away, that I should enrol in a course. After about 8 months of travelling, I committed to enrolling in a one year Pet Grooming course at TAFE. I came back to Aus feeling a little less lost in my mid twenties 🥲

…Now we’re here!

There’s not many of us across the globe and I’m glad to be one of the few that are able to sculpt fur for a living 💛

Please view the new pricing of services on the second slide! The new pricing is now inclusive of 10% GST.

Thank you again for your support over the years! I’ve been a little anxious to post this update and hope this has been enough notice for everyone- as I’m aware of the cost of living pressures, especially over the last 12 months 💛

I am more than happy to answer any other questions you may have with the changes made- best method of contact is via text 0420 775 325 🐶

A few updates for the end of the year:

✨See second pic for a sneak peek of the Christmas bows! Bows will be given out from 1st Nov - 23rd Dec 🎄 one per dog after their full groom.

✨Fluffin will be taking a break from 24th December - returning 15th January. Extra days and hours will be added to hopefully accommodate!

✨If your pup will be due around these dates it might be a good idea to plan ahead!
For example:
* Organising a shorter groom to last a few weeks longer.
*Booking in with another groomer (even for a bath or tidy up to maintain a knot free coat).

✨Currently not taking new clients sorry! Feel free to message (text) for any last minute appointments.

6 Days done and dusted at PIGA international 🎉

Now time to apply these skills back at the Fluffin studio ✂️

We were given 2 full days to complete 2 grooms on our real life dogs. So let’s see what can be accomplished in a standard 1.5/2 hour time slot! 💛

Special thanks to .khoo and her team for the opportunity and the memories. Looking forward to continuing learning through the online courses. I am now one step closer to grooming like they do in Asia 😊💛

Fluffin IMPORTANT UPDATES

🌟 KUALA LUMPUR

Starting off with some exciting news! I will be travelling to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to participate in a 6 day, Asian Fusion grooming course. For an inside look of what I’ll be learning, check out Pets Icon Grooming Academy.

https://m.facebook.com/petsicongroomingacademy/

Travel dates: 30th November - 11th December (Any appointments that fall on these dates will be rescheduled. I will be in contact!).

🌟SATURDAY APPOINTMENTS

From 1st January 2023, Fluffin will be dropping Saturday appointments. Operating days will now be Monday - Friday.

I hope this early notice will allow current Saturday client’s to readjust to make a weekday work, or to find another groomer that best suits their availability (I will try my best to help with the search).

🌟PRICE INCREASE

Fluffin will be readjusting prices from 1st January 2023. I have attached the updated price list on this post for your reference. Services that will have a $5 increase:

Bath & Blow Dry | S: $45, M: $55
All Over Style | S: $100, M: $115

I hope that the 6 month notice will allow client’s time to factor in the increase and how it may effect you moving forward.

✨Feel free to contact me for further clarification on any of the above - Shirley 💛

For those wondering what brushes I use, I hope you find the recommendations below helpful 💛:

⭐️ Yento - Megapin Slicker (I have this in the medium size) This gets out most knots and matting that isn’t to the skin. #1 Pick for regular brushing.

⭐️ Artero Double Flexible Slicker (I have this in the small size) This brush has softer pins than the Yento. I use this mainly on the face.

⭐️ Artero Double Flexible Dematting Slicker - Much harder pins. I mainly use this on bad knots/matting on the tail and ears, alongside with a dematting tool if necessary.

⭐️ ShowTech Dematter - 9 Blade Dematting Comb - Normally used on matting to break apart/slice through the matts. Be gentle and finish off with a brush and comb.

✨ Make sure to go over your brushing with a comb, to check for any knots that you might have missed 🙏 Any matting that is TO THE SKIN is quite painful to brush out (and will probably make your dog hate brushing!) so leave this to your groomer.

Try www.catch.com.au to purchase brushes above.

They grow up so fast 🥺
Swipe for a pic of Mini from one her very first baths!

Way back in March 2021 💛

For those asking about Shampoo, I use the Melanie Newman range 🛁 a high quality shampoo and quite accessible - try your local PetBarn

💡TIP #1: shampoo twice before conditioning! Once to remove all the dirt and the second for a proper cleanse

💡TIP #2: Invest in a high velocity pet dryer - you can purchase a decent model on Ebay for around $100

Make sure the coat is 100% dry. Wet coats (especially on Oodles) are much more prone to matting.

Finny has such a pretty coat colour don’t you think? 💕

✨ Thinking of making some FAQ content as well. Let me know in the comments what you’d like to see!

Most of my clients have graduated from their puppy tidy ups and are now getting their big, adult grooms 🥺 This will be one of my last puppy transformations for now 💕

✨For those on the waitlist, I’ll hopefully be in touch soon after I reevaluate my current schedule

✨for my existing clients who are booking on a casual basis, you will now need to book in advance and on a regular basis (at least 7 weekly for style grooms and 8 weekly for comfort, unless otherwise discussed)

I hope everyone has had a great start to the year 💛🐶

Here we have Luna, styled in the classic ‘short, but not too short’ look 🐶☀️

The majority of my clients featured on the gram are usually in the long ‘all over style’. So here is an example of a ‘comfort’ groom. This stye is great if you’re looking for something shorter to beat the Australian heat 😊☀️

* This is the longest length for the ‘comfort’ groom (the look of the length is dependent on coat type and the physiology of the dog)

* This length tends to look shorter on dogs with tall, skinny legs and longer on dogs with short legs or on naturally ‘big boned’ dogs 😂 Luna is a little bit in the middle

Refer to the Fluffin website for a more detailed description of a ‘comfort’ groom and also other services that Fluffin has to offer 🤗

🌸 Fluffin Updates 🌸

* A huge thank you to the Fluffin community for putting my name out into the world, I have definitely been a bit of a busy the last few months! 🐝
At this stage I will not be accepting new clients (spots may potentially open up in the new year! So still feel free to shoot me a message)

*Fluffin will be taking a much needed break from Dec 25th - Jan 4th (potentially opening 28/12 and 29/12 for existing clients)

*I will also be taking a mini break from Nov 2nd - Nov 5th for the boyfriend’s birthday 🙈 (sorry for any delayed responses in the next few days)

*Lastly for those clients that usually rock the ‘all over style’, and who are worried if their pups can handle the heat… we can definitely take it shorter! Chapo (in the photo) has the shortest version of the ‘all over’ for your reference
