A highly creative grooming style inspired by the playful grooming trends of Japan, Korea, and China, designed to transform dogs into soft toy-like characters with exaggerated softness, rounded features, and expressive styling.
Drawing on WOOOF’s competition success, Asian Freestyle Grooming focuses on creating balance, symmetry, softness, and personality through advanced hand-scissoring techniques. Depending on your preferences, the style can include rounded teddy bear faces, fuller legs, stylised shaping, and even playful additions such as braids, piggy tails, and accessories.
What’s involved:
- Phone consultation to discuss your preferred look before your first appointment, so we can prepare the coat and styling approach required
- Luxe Wash & Dry using competition-grade styling products and an intensive Super Fluff Dry to maximise coat texture and volume before sculpting and finishing the style entirely by hand
- Precision clipping and specialist hand-scissoring by an award-winning stylist
- Sanitary areas are clipped neatly, paw pads cleared, ears tidied, and nails clipped if required
- Finish with nourishing paw butter, a natural conditioning spray, and a natural, alcohol-free fragrance to promote softness and shine.
This grooming style requires significant coat preparation and is only suitable for dogs groomed every 4 weeks, regularly brushed at home, and comfortable standing for extended styling sessions.
Best suited to smaller breeds and coat types including Miniature Poodles, Schnauzers, Yorkies, Pomeranians, Shih Tzus, Bichons, and Maltese with dense or curly coats that can be sculpted into soft teddy bear and fairy floss-style finishes.
