cutting the top of their head.

[Doodle Grooming]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to cut the top of their heads?? jace's looks kinda funny since our bad grooming experience, they did it all wrong from the get go but now that it's growing out he looks like he has some weird bed head hairstyle! LOL. So does anyone have any suggestions or tips on how I should cut him??

Emily, check the 'New Shears and muzzle discussion in doodle grooming where Barb suggested:

The top should look like a crysthanamum. A quick way is to gather all the hair on the top of the head up in a pony tail and 'chop'. This automatically gives a layered appearance.

I trimmed Teddy poodle knob with curved scissors to be more flat and
in line with the rest of his length.  People have told me they like it
better.
