Hi Guys
I have a question. We got our Zuzu groomed and they took too much hair off. She didn't have much hair to begin with but now she really looks like a lab with a unibrow! All her fluffy cute hair is gone! Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Jen

All things heal with time?

It'll grow back soon enough?

Sorry to hear about it.

As my hairdresser always says: The difference between a bad-lucking hair cut & a good one is six weeks! The scruffy curls will be back soon. When I had my doodle groomed I wrote out specific directions for what I wanted - (ie 1" long on the legs & back, 1 1/2 " on the top of the head, nothing taken off the ears & tail feathers, etc.)
Labradoodles are relatively new & many groomers aren't experienced enough with the "doodle look" so they need us to guide them. Another thing that might be helpful is to take a photo with you of the way you'd like the haircut to look - there atre lots of great ones posted on the Labradoodles photos site. Also, it might be helpful calling various groomers ahead of time & asking if they've done other doodles & ask for references.
I now do my own grooming - very easy with clippers that have snap-on combs in various lengths so I can't cut it too short & it's so much cheaper.
Goog luck.
