Help reduce shedding by up to 80% this fall!











SHEDICURE Hair Control System Gives Weeks Of Relief From Dead Hair!
After the regular shampoo and brushing, which removes the loose hair and tangles, your Groomer uses the FURminator® tool and a special “carding” technique to remove more of the hair.
Within a few days you will see a noticeable reduction in the amount of hair being shed... up to 80%!
It is not possible to stop the natural function of shedding completely, but the SHEDICURE Hair Control System can help you manage it.
HAIR CYCLES
Hair does not grow continually, but in cycles. After a growing stage the hair rest. During this resting stage a new hair is growing beside the old hair, which is then shed out. This is when it lands on your clothes, floor and furniture.
At any given time there is hair on the dog in different phases. Hair is lost all year, with heavier shedding occurring seasonally. Light effects the cycle, so when the days are longer, spring to summer, there is more shedding. Domestication has changed seasonal shedding to some extent. House pets are exposed to long hours of artificial light, so they tend to lose hair year round.

HOW CAN YOUR GROOMER HELP?
The good news is that your groomer can remove much of the dead shedding hair, up to 80%!

HOW SHEDICURE IS DONE
1. A warm massaging shampoo is the first step to loosen the hair.
2. Hand drying is the next stage. The coat is brushed and combed while high volume hair dryers are used to penetrate the coat to the skin and loosen and blow out the coat.
3. Finally the groomer uses a special tool to “card” out the remaining excess undercoat.
THE RESULT
At first, because the pet hair follicles have been disturbed, you will see some shedding. After about 24 hours, the coat will settle and you will see a remarkable reduction in shedding.
Returning for regular shampoo and Sheicure sessions will dramitacally reduce the about our hair you see in your house, car and on your clothes. At the peak of shedding season, a Shedicure may need to be done about every 3 weeks. Most pet owners book a shampoo and Shedicure every 6-8 weeks.
**Please remember nothing can totally illimate natural shedding. When a pet gets excited or nervous, some shedding will occur
