With the jaw line then and the cheek is done, you’re ready to start flipping your ear. It’s very easy to nip the ears so you must take a great deal of care but carefully upwards against the grain of the hair and flip to the top of the ear.
There at the side of the ear, take particular care flipping that side of the ear. There are a couple of local folds in the corner and it’s very easy to catch your blade in them. Once you flipped most of the hair away from the center, flip that bit downwards and upwards. This way there is no risks of you catching the dog’s ear. But right then to the back of the ear, don’t cut too high up on the head and all the excess old hair away having done the outside flap you’ve got also to do the inside flap.
Again, on the tricky cutting there is a risk of catching it the flipper, flip it outwards and then flip down. The nicest finish I think is I believe a diamond shape at the bottom of the ear. So it will pop up like that so they can look very nice lying on the outside of the ear.
Having clipped it, you’re then left with all the springing on the outside. You turn this carefully away with a pair of scissors. A small pair of scissor is best for this not too long a blade. If you can’t see the edge of the ear clearly, wet your fingers, wet the hair slightly and stand away from the ear and you can see the edge of the ear more clearly.
Always clip the blade of the scissor out of the way, trim carefully these little folds and that’s very easy. I won’t tell you to have bandage on this side.
