Chris Christensen Mark III Slicker Brush, Medium

Chris Christensen, a brand highly regarded among professional dog handlers, groomers, and exhibitors, is renowned for its high-quality grooming tools and pet care products that deliver professional-level results. The brand has a strong reputation at dog shows.

Chris Christensen's specialty Mark Series brushes are beautifully handcrafted Beechwood tools whose unique shapes do all the work for you and provide less stress for both the groomer and the animal. These specialty slicker brushes are perfectly shaped and gentle enough for those hard-to-reach places.

Slicker brushes vary in size and shape, but the one thing they have in common is that the pins are always bent. Slickers are great for getting out finer hairs, creating volume, and achieving a smooth finish. They are not usually used on drop-coated breeds, except for the short leg hair. For ears, tail, or topknot, only use slickers for the last 10% of the drying process to avoid taking out too much coat.

As a general rule, the longer the coat, the longer the pins in the brush should be. The coarser the coat, the firmer the pad of the brush should be, and the softer the coat, the softer the pad of the brush should be. In general, a pin brush is for everyday use and general maintenance, while slickers reach down to remove loose undercoat.

Chris Christensen's Ice on Ice is a ready-to-use leave-in conditioner and detangling spray that also doubles as sunscreen. This product adds elasticity and strength to the coat, manages to repel dirt, dust, liquids, and other pollutants, and is water-soluble, allowing it to be applied to a wet or dry coat, providing a beautiful finish.

Pair the specialty slicker brushes with Ice on Ice Detangling and Finishing Spray for optimal results. Make it a bundle with a variety of brushes, including the Mark X Tiny Slicker, Mark II Slicker Brush, Mark III Slicker Brush, Mark VI Curved Slicker, Mark V Triangle Slicker, and Mark VIII Round Slicker, as well as other grooming essentials like the JustDivine Brushing Spray, Big G Slicker Brush, Big K Slicker Brush, 27mm Oval Pin Brush, and 7.5 in Fine/Coarse Comb.

The Chris Christensen brand started in 1996 when Chris Christensen developed the first true color-correcting shampoo for canines and felines. This catalyst in the evolution of canine coat care has allowed Chris Christensen Systems to bring you the finest grooming products ever available in the dog show and pet care worlds.
