I have a very heavy gypsy vanner who sweats all over at the mention of work. I decided to give her a full clip but leave half face and legs on.
I first clipped her a few weeks ago and despite my best intentions she was covered in clipper lines and looked pretty much like a patch work quilt.
I have clipped for years when younger then didn't clip for about 8 yrs as had no need so not a total beginner clipping.
After reading all I could and watching you tube videos on how not to leave clipper lines i re clip her today.
Made sure I kept clippers level and went slightly up previous clip line. All went well (ish) on the soft hair on neck area. But her hair is so coarse over back and bum it just wouldn't clip as well. So now she has more clipper lines to hide for a few weeks and looks pretty bad.
I use big heavy duty clippers (forgot name but decentish ones) and smaller masterclip ones.
Anyone any ideas?! Thank god I don't take her out competing much! Feel quite disappointed in myself.
