All About Blow-Drying Your Shih Tzu’s Hair Portable Stand
Blow-Drying:
The reason for blow-drying your Shih Tzu's hair after a bath is to get the coat as fluffy as possible. You want a lush, powder-puff look. To blow-dry a Shih Tzu's hair:
1. Place the damp dog on the table. 2. Work from rear to front. 3. Hold the dryer in one spot. As the hairs blow apart, brush the Shih Tzu's coat out once again. 4. Brush until the area is completely dry. 5. Move on the next spot.
To get a good blow-dry of your Shih Tzu's hair be especially systematic. Otherwise, some areas will look ***** and curly. If the Shih Tzu's hair dries too quickly, dampen the ***** areas and blow them dry.
If your Shih Tzu's coat is heavy and thick, you will need a stronger dryer with a more powerful air flow to achieve the desired look. Do not brush your Shih Tzu's hair heavily while blow-drying. Light, quick strokes are best.
If you have your Shih Tzu's hair cut short, you can use a regular cage and towel dry.
Types of Dryers:
There are at least four types of dryers you can use at home for your Shih Tzu the same as a professional would use. These are:
1. A cage dryer. 2. A floor dryer. 3. A wall dryer. 4. A Pet dryer.
Cage Dryer: After your bath your Shih Tzu, towel-dry and place your Shih Tzu in a cage. A professional cage dryer will hook onto the cage. Set the dryer to either warm or hot. Your Shih Tzu should dry in a short period of time.
Floor Dryer: A floor dryer is used for blow-drying. A floor dryer will usually have a stronger blow than a cage dryer. Floor dryers are usually mounted on a portable stand. You can move the dryer in a variety of positions.
Wall Dryer: A wall-mounted unit is also available. The maneuvering for blow-drying is done with a hose. There are several advantages to this type of dryer. They are:
1. Does not take up space on the floor. 2. The hose is easy to maneuver. 3. Since the blow is stronger through the hose, the dryer requires less electricity.
Pet Dryer: Just about any human hair dryer can be used as a pet dryer. Some companies manufacture special made pet dryers. They work fine, but will not give you the same look as a professional dryer.
