Description
The Show Tech Grooming Stones are designed to prevent hair damage and breakage. Traditional grooming stones often leave visible grit in the coat, but that is not the case with the innovative Show Tech Groom Stones. That being said, there is always some grit when plucking with a grooming stone. However, the unique variety of Show Tech grooming stone colors means that less residue will be visible.
Made of high-quality, 100% natural pumice, these stones are particularly hard-wearing, allowing them to last much longer than the average grooming stone. Also, the elegant rectangular shape and rounded corners make the stone easy to hold and work with. The homogeneous porous surface also allows for a better grip on the hair during hand stripping on the coat of, for example, a cocker or spaniel. Hairs can be carefully be plucked without damage.
- Pluck hair safely without risk of cutting or damaging the coat

How to Use
Take the stone in your dominant hand and, with the thumb of your other hand, hold the dog's skin firmly. Then, using the groom stone, comb in the direction of the coat growth to remove the undercoat. Do this with a gentle movement and without exerting too much pressure. This is the first way to use the stone.
There is also another way. Hold the stone in the palm of your hand and, while applying a technique similar to when using a stripping knife, use your thumb to grasp the hair and trap/hold it against the stone for easy plucking. It is even easier if you use your other hand and your fingers or a brush to lift a few hairs from the coat. This way you can better see where to pull. Repeat until the desired length is reached. To make it more comfortable for the dog, we recommend using your free hand to slightly tighten the skin just above the area where you want to pull the hairs.
