FAQs
Can I use the LeMieux Hands On Grooming Glove on my cat?

How often should I use the grooming glove?

Will this glove get rid of mats in my dog's fur?

Is the glove machine washable?
No, the glove is not machine washable. It should be hand-washed with clean water and air-dried.

Troubleshooting
Glove feels loose or slips during use
Ensure your hand is dry before inserting into the glove. Adjust the fit if your hand size is between sizes by wearing thin gloves underneath or seeking a size that fits more snugly.
Not removing hair as effectively as expected
Ensure the glove is being used correctly, with firm but gentle pressure. For de-shedding, work the glove in the direction of hair growth. For tougher stains, a wet application might be more effective.
Material feels stiff after drying
This is normal for the material. The flexibility will return once the glove is used again, especially when wet or warmed by body heat.
Skin irritation on the animal
Discontinue use immediately and consult a veterinarian. Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure and that the animal's skin is in good condition before grooming.
