Het trusts me though because she wants me to go and cut her hair for her

Well you had probably had one snakebite or newky brown too many but you did say it Het.
Shall I use Benjis scissors or the ones I use for the guinea pigs or aren't you really bothered 
Steve will do the first aid (if needed) because he is a qualified first aider so everything will be fine, so don't worry

i think you should learn how to clipper dogs, we have just done Florrie my westie cross dandie, as the dogs are mine, my parents insist on me being responsiable for them.
I am in my mid teens, so if i can do it, anybody can!
The main thing is getting it just right, i clipper Florries, hole body, but leave her a mane around her shoulders, and her head long and normal, it sounds silly but it is a pretty functional terrier cut.
Any advice wanted just PM me.
best wishes

I bought some Whal clippers, from a company that sells reconditioned ones on eBay.
They cost £30, but it costs £15 to get Kingsley clipped, so it's a decent price!
I tried it on different blades to start with, as wasn't sure on the right one, but soon found it!
I do his whole body, legs, belly, neck, chest with the clippers, then trim his feet and face with scissors
I got the clippers in a case, with scissors, and loads of shampoos!
