The first is self-study. Although self-study does not require investment, it is the worst method. Pet grooming requires a lot of operations, and most skills can't be learned only by reading books, and the learning cycle is long. I have this interest. I can teach myself how to beautify my dog at home. If I want to work in a pet shop, it's completely impossible.
The level of private teachers is uneven. Although they teach in detail, most of them are skills on the field, which is not practical for ordinary pet groomers. And you don't practice many dogs, most of them are word skills.
Some people may think that apprentices in pet shops can not only learn skills, but also have pet dogs to practice every day and get paid. But is this really the case? Generally, the old pet groomer will only give you the dirty work, only let you bathe the dog every day, and will not teach you practical skills at all, because no pet groomer is willing to train someone who will compete with him for a job. Neither the customer nor the store manager will let you be an apprentice who knows nothing to shear the customer's dog, so in the end, you will find that apprenticeship in a pet shop is just a waste of time.
There will only be an investment in the early stage of studying in the pet grooming school, but the school has professional and systematic training methods to make you become a professional pet groomer quickly, and there are a large number of dogs for you to practice, so there will be no actual situation. You will find that the initial investment can be earned back soon after you join the company quickly, and it saves a lot of time than other ways.
Therefore, it is recommended to go to a professional pet grooming school to learn pet grooming!
