Turn “just a trim” into a useful brief.
Choose the visible details that matter, then add handling and health context your salon should know. We will turn it into plain language you can copy for check-in while leaving technical decisions to your groomer.
A plain-language note for check-in
Body: Medium and balanced. Face: Rounded teddy bear face. Ears: Blend ears into the head. Feet: Neat round feet. Tail: Trim and balance the tail. Home care: I can brush a few times a week. Please adjust anything that is not comfortable or realistic for the coat today.
Close the loop in 60 seconds.
Ask what your groomer noticed, where care got tricky, what to do at home, and when to check again.
