Cavachon haircuts are usually short, making this breed mix between a Cavalier King Charles spaniel and bichon frise look like a cute pup all the time. It is a hypoallergenic dog breed with curly hair, shreds infrequently, and is perfect for the apartment because you won’t experience balls of fur all over the year.

However, this breed requires a cut every now and then, depending on the coat. As a mixed breed, you might observe that every Cavachon fur is different, so you must adapt the trimming. 

Prepping Cavachon For A Haircut

Cavachon haircuts firstly require a thorough brush. This helps you remove dead hair that is caught in the coat and any possible mats. Prepping the coat for the bath and groom is a necessary step because this will decrease the chances of getting mats.

Before the groom and bath, check your little buddy’s ears and remove the hair from the canal. When bathing your dog and rinsing it, make sure you don’t get water into his ears. To avoid that, hold the ears close to the head.

It is important not to leave any conditioner or shampoo in your dog’s coat because it will build up with the debris. Towel him off and dry the coat. Once you are done, you are ready to do the Cavachon haircut. Follow the steps and discover the best trimming tips for your fluffy friend. 

Final Brush

After you dry off your dog, brush its hair again to make sure all the dead hair is eliminated. If you can get a comb through its coat, then that’s a sign that you can start trimming. If you can’t, don’t ignore this step and continue brushing until its coat is easy to manipulate. 

Neck and Jaw

All hair from the base of the ear to the throat and the back of the skull will have the same length. When you reach the ear base, make sure you hold the ear up and not cut any hair that covers it. You will be dealing with that later. You can use the trimming machine in booth directions, depending on how you find it comfortable.
