- 10 step shearing and styling technique for a cute teddybear cut and an even coat that grows out beautifully!
You don't need anything expensive to complete this look. There are plenty of "grooming kits" you can buy from amazon which will have everything you need, scissors, clippers, multiple guards, combs etc...
The specific kit I'm using in this video is:

She did an amazing job she made sure to wait for the rabbit to get comfortable I liked the video very informative 👍😌

I love how in the sped up part the bunnies nose goes into hyper speed 🤣💕
cuteee😂❤
I have 2 English angoras so helpful and so cute I love your angoras coloring I have a white red-eyed doe and a chocolate buck with pedigrees.
Awwww this is the cuteness video
This is helping me so much!! Thank you dear for the tips!
Thank you. Can’t wait to try this with all your tips!
Would have liked to see you warn people about not cutting into the tailbone! They need to physically locate the tailbone with their non-cutting hand and hold the hand down on top of the tailbone to protect it from being cut into! Too many horrible injuries have occurred because of people not doing this.
This is a very good point. I do have a statement in the tutorial about being 100% confident with your rabbits body before going in with scissors ✂️ hopefully people would know this also means the tail! 😳
so cute
I follow you on IG!! I am so happy I found you on CZcams. I have angoras as well
Aww love the coloring on your bunny!
Adorable
Finally a formative and detailed sheering vid. Wish I can bring you my bun to sheer 🥲 he’s always terrified from the it even thought I try my best not to scare him..
Thanks so much 🐰 Glad you found this helpful 💕 Start by just placing the clippers on the table near him and turning them on (with a guard on of course) let him sniff and get used to it. He’s just a bit scared of this loud strange object 😊
You should post more! I love your content and I just got an angora bunny
Where can u get these rabbits
@@avisgreen32 i got mine from my therapist but you can search on google “angora rabbit breeders near me” you of course don’t have to put “near me” if you’re willing to drive far. You could probably find some on Facebook too!🥰
I was thought to use a scissor when young, but getting back into having a pair of angoras I think a machine with a guard is better. Maybe faster for the humen, but also then less waiting for the rabbit and les chance of cutting.
Have never really understood the purpose of using a guard. Does using the 9mm guard help protect the skin from being cut? If so, does it do this perhaps by lifting the cutting blade up off the skin a little bit?
Rabbits have so much loose skin. I always make sure to hold the skin taut wherever I’m clippering to help avoid cutting into a fold of skin! This is super important! But if using a guard would protect the skin even more, I will start using one!
Always use a guard. Their skin can tear so easily. Good job on keeping the skin taut, that’s always a good idea.
What clipper do you use?
The Gimars brand of clippers on Amazon are what many EA owners use. They are powered by a rechargeable battery and the charger comes with the clippers. Less than $40, but don’t let the cheaper price scare you… they cut wonderfully well. I actually returned $200 Andis clippers because they kept skipping along my rabbit’s skin and were therefore dangerous. The Gimars are lightweight and very quiet for clippers!
So, the way you trimmed, could the fur be used ?
You would ideally wait at the very least about 6 months before trimming the wool off for use. This wool is too short to spin up into yarn.
I don't have angoras or plan to get any, but the one sheared looks as though he/she is late for the grooming. The bunny looks very tangled - after watching another video on this topic, that bunny was not tangled at all.
I keep Poppy’s wool short because it is very coarse, unfortunately she doesn’t have the silkiest coat in the rabbitry - which is why I used her as my model for this video as other CZcams videos of shearing use perfect coats which makes the shearing so much easier. I wanted to make a realistic tutorial for pet owners. She isn’t tangled though, if you google “angora rabbit matted wool” you will see what it looks like when they are left un-groomed for too long, it’s very sad 😞
Hey this clippers aren’t avalible anymore can u please recommend others like these u had on the video ?

Scary be careful
It’s not scary if you know what you’re doing
Bisch du sonstnowie komisch?
They must be terrified when being sheered. How about being sensible and not breeding a rabbit that has to be sheared, just to make profit from it?? Just look after them normally, allowing alot of space for running and jumping, sensible diet including hay, you know, the normal things for a rabbit?
The Angora rabbit is the oldest domestic breed of rabbit in the world. They have an impressive and rich history to them, from their origins in Angora Turkey in 500 AD, making their way to the laps of French Royalty in the 1700's all the way through to their rise in America in the early 20th century where their wool was used to keep WWII soldiers warm. There are very few of rabbit breeders who choose to work with English Angoras across the world, and the 'handful' of us that do are doing it in the hopes to keep this wonderful breed from disappearing all together. Ethical rabbitries like mine do not turn profit from keeping English Angoras, in fact it's a hugely costly thing to commit to. As you can see from my video they aren't terrified of being sheared - unlike other animals who require shearing, English Angoras do not need to be restrained or have their feet off the ground to stop them running away. I don't understand your last sentence because it's not written very clearly, but English Angoras still run around, jump and enjoy life. They also eat hay - their diet isn't vastly different from other breeds, the main difference is they require more fibre, so they actually require more hay than other breeds.
@@LoveABun you should have learnt how to groom their wool better before adopting one. You should be able to maintain a long coat without any mats, it’s not difficult with the right equipment and knowledge… your rabbit should never have mats, nor be blinded by their facial wool, nor should your rabbit not be able to run and jump because they are in full coat (if your rabbit’s movements are restricted causing it not to run or be able to groom itself, it’s because you’ve unsuccessfully groomed them 😫 The wool should be soft and mat free all the way to the skin allowing all movements as normal and allowing the rabbit to reach its skin for itches and grooming). Clipping the coat short is only beneficial for heat purposes - keep long in winter and short in summer. Please do more research on how to keep your Angora’s coat 😖😤
Yes. Let's let angora rabbits go extinct. :S
You clearly don't understand the video. The rabbit is simply bored and wants to move on to something else. It's not terrified.
@@Thewoolyrabbit Yes. I don't see their logic. Having animals who give the chance of warm clothes is actully better then buying flecce (for the nature) or wool from business you don't know the practice of.
@@nadiar.7788 Haha, I know... Meanwhile there are actully animals who live poor lifes.. Only thing diffrent with angoras are that they need to stay away from wet weather and things getting stuck in their fur other then that they jump around like all other rabbits. I even had an angora who loved jumping tracks competing, we only did it for fun, but he was really good at it. Strong legs and jumped high. Calm, but active and super friendly. The one I have now makes big happy jumps all the time. I got him from someone giving him away and he had a cage outside, and he now has a big pen in a shedd and will get a friend. He climbs in your lap for cuddles and got so overjoyed when he got a fleece blanket to lay on yesterday 🥰 They are calm, mild and friendly rabbits who loves cuddles and yes they do have an amazing fur. Why would someone wish them extinct.
