Im trying to start a small grooming operation in my home, and take maybe a couple to a few dogs a week and charge very little, for the practice.
What I want to know is...what all will I need? What do you all recommend as the basics?
I have a new Andis clipper, this is the one I bought since it was all I could afford at the time http://www.petco.com/Shop/Product.a...85&N=22 102 30 238&sku=848255&familyID=10361&
Anyway, I like the clipper, but I want something BETTER. I just cant decide between Oster or Andis, and which one to go with. I also need to know what blades to buy separately for all different breeds of dogs. I also need a blade that can do a close cut and not burn the dog or cut the dog. Any ideas?
Oh, and what's the difference between UltraEdge and Super Speed? Which would would work best?
Also...shears...are really expensive, and ill have to wait on that one. I have the ones that came with the clippers, so I guess ill use those for now. But once I decide to buy some, what are some good, inexpensive ones to buy?
I think the rest is pretty basic, shampoo's, conditionsers, bows, brushes, etc. I think I can handle that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
