When necessary you can rebrush out the coat at anytime using the Fisnishing Show Spray – This will allow you to work with the coat without any damage to the hair shafts. To do a quick clean up on the beards or legs dilute the No Rinse Shampoo 50/50 with water and apply it with a spray bottle to the areas you would like to clean, with a dry towel soak up as much water as possible from the coat. You can reapply the Foam or Spray Gel in the legs if necessary. You can apply to dry hair, but do not forget to dry it immediately and stretch it with the brush.

For mounting the head do the teasing at the base and set it into place with the Maxim Hair Spray – This is a waterless spray so it will not weigh down the work you did teasing.
With the coat still damp apply the Volumizing Foam in the parts where you will need extra volumen. (For additional lift in the coat you can apply the Volumizing Spray Gel at the base of the coat. When line drying the coat make sure to dry in an upward motion on a warm setting to help the gel set the coat into place). Work the Foam into the coat with the tips of your fingers, begin to dry. This type of coat take a long time to dry so you can that way you can keep adding the foam in the areas where additional texture is needed but never let the coat dry without brushing trough the product to blend it into the coat. The idea is to leave a natural lookinf and feeling coat.

 

For maintenance,

with the Reconstructing Shampoo diluted 1 to 8 and with the Deep Conditioner diluted 1 to 8. Note: Using the Brightening Shampoo & the No Rinse Shampoo on the white parts will help maintain the brightness you desire for show days. Make sure to always rinse out ALL the shampoo.

Show Days

It is important to wet the dog before applying the brightening shampoo
Diluted the shampoo 1 to 8 parts water. Apply the mixture throughout the coat and work it in with your hands in an outward motion so that you do not create any unnessecary matting. When beginning to rinse the dog with warm water you do not necessarily have to remove all the shampoo from the first bath before continuing to applying the next shampoo.
Second use the Volumizing Shampoo also diluted 1 to 8 – On the white area you can apply the No Rinse Shampoo directly to the coat to help intensify the whites. It is very important to work the product into the coat with your hands. Once you've finished washing the coat rinse out ALL the shampoo.
To give a finishing touch on the back or tail, apply the Finishing Show Spray. This will allow you to work the coat by lifting in the tail area or tucking in the shoulders.
