What are Curved Dog Grooming Scissors and Shears?

As the name implies, these lovely dog grooming scissors and shears have curved blades rather than straight ones.

They come in the same size range as the straight scissors but play a different role in the dog grooming process. Curved dog grooming scissors and shears are designed to produce curves and to add a finish to a curved area on the dog. Places that lend themselves to being trimmed with curved dog grooming scissors are heads, ribcages, back leg angulation, legs and feet.

How to Use Curved Scissors for Dog Grooming?

When using the curved scissors, the dog groomer must take care not to over turn the blades. If you have been trimming a round shape using a straight scissor you must be aware that the curve of the blade does the shaping for you and if you over turn the scissor you may take off too much coat. Inverting a curved scissors can make it easier to add shape into the bend in a back leg or to set the neck at the top line.

Having a curved dog grooming scissor is an essential and great addition to any dog groomer's tool kit. Please take a look at our range of curved dog grooming scissors.
