All Mikki de-matting products have micro-serrated edges and are made from stainless steel to ensure long lasting quality and excellent results.
Directions for Use
Designed to cut through tangled & matted hair. The tapered guide penetrates the tangle and allows the blade to cut the hair. Brush or comb the area to be treated – this will help locate the genuine matts.
Use a “sawing” action with short strokes for effective cutting – never force the Matt Splitter through matts as this will cause discomfort to the animal and is less effective.
Use a Mikki Grooming Comb to clear the loose hairs.
Grooming guide:
Always keep Matt Splitter level with the skin to avoid digging in (fig.1)
Keep Matt Splitter upright and at right angles to the skin – avoid having it at a slant (fig.2).
Avoid using the Matt Splitter on sensitive areas where there is loose or folded skin. Never lift the skin into a “peak” (fig.3) when cutting as this can result in serious injury. If in doubt use clippers or scissors with care. If your pet is extensively matted seek professional help.
When you have finished your grooming session, dont forget to spray your pet's coat with Mikki Anti-Tangle Spray. This will keep your pet's coat in good condition and help make any tangles easier to comb out in the future.
Important: keep out of reach of children. Use extra care when using any grooming aid with sharp edges.
