When I first started grooming last year, one of my co-workers saw me handscissoring a Yorkie with a pair of blending shears. She told me she NEVER uses blending shears to handscissor a dog because she was told at a grooming expo in Chicago that it could cause a curly coat. She said she had a Yorkie she used to handscissor with blending shears turn curly after a while and she was convinced that it was the shears that did it.
I've tried researching this and I cannot find any information stating that blending or thinning shears might make a coat curly. I suppose if you grip the hair and pull it with the blending or thinning shears, it might act like ribbon and curl. I haven't notice any of my handscissor coats becoming curly, but I thought I'd ask the experts about this and settle it. CAN blenders or thinners make a coat curly with normal use?
Thanks in advance!
