Save the Shaveβ„’

Save the Shaveβ„’

Save the Shave is for the moments when regular brushing is no longer enough. This bundle pairs Emergency Dematter Cream with the Rake Brush to help you soften tight mats, work through packed tangles, and step in before the next groom turns into a shave-down.

It’s the duo we reach for when the coat needs more than a normal brush-through but still feels worth saving. Use the cream first, then work slowly with the Rake Brush in short outside-in strokes for a calmer, more controlled brush-through. Keep it on hand for the high-stress coat moments and give yourself a better shot at keeping that fluff intact.

Perfect For

The bundle this whole company is built around.

Skip The Groomer started with a Goldendoodle, nine puppies, and one stubborn idea. A matted dog doesn't have to mean a shaved dog.

When a coat has gone too long, a groomer often has to shave the area down so a new, healthy coat can grow back. For felting, that's the right call. For the workable mats in between, this is the kit we keep on the shelf for the moment we find one.

Emergency Dematter Cream. Pre-treat the worst spots: behind the ears, under the collar, the matted patch on the back leg you've been avoiding. Apply generously, wait two minutes, finger-split gently. The cream softens the structure of the mat so the hair separates instead of breaks.

Rake Brush. Once the mat is loosened, the Rake does the slow, careful work of brushing it outside-in, strand by strand. Not a slicker that snags. Not a brush that yanks. The right tool for the job.

Together, they give a coat a real chance to keep its length.

We named this bundle for the goal it works toward. Save the Shaveβ„’. It is a method, not a guarantee. Some mats need a groomer no matter how good the product or how patient the technique. The skill is knowing the difference, and this kit gives most workable mats a calm path through.

Key Benefits

  • Pairs the two products you want most when the mat strike.
  • Helps reduce pulling when used the right way: soften first, then work outside-in.
  • A strong fit for doodles, poodles, curly coats, and thick coats that mat fast.
  • Helps you stay ahead of costly emergency groomer fixes and stressful appointments.

How to use

Shake the bottle well. Cover the mat with Emergency Dematter Cream, rub it, and let it sit for 2 minutes. Hold the hair at the base, then use the Rake Brush in short outside-in strokes. Work slowly and repeat as needed. This bundle is all about patience, easy brushing that is comfortable for both you and your dog.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What should I do after I use the Save the Shave Bundle?

Move into easier brushing. Once you have handled the mat moment, the goal is to keep it from happening again. That is where Detangling Treatment and a Pin Brush come in. Many Save the Shave customers add the Easy Brush Days Bundle next to lock in a smoother weekly brushing experience.

2. What does the Emergency Dematter Cream do in this bundle?

It gives this routine its rescue step for tight mats, compacted knots, and tangles that have gone beyond a normal brush-through.

3. When should I reach for Emergency Dematter Cream in this routine?

Use it when regular brushing is no longer enough. Apply it until the mat is fully damp, let it sit for about 2 minutes, and then work slowly through the area with the right tool.

4. Are the ingredients in Emergency Dematter Cream healthy and thoughtfully chosen?

Yes. We build our liquids around herbal ingredients like calendula flower extract, hibiscus flower extract, burdock root extract, and nettle leaf extract instead of generic bargain-shelf formulas built around the cheapest possible ingredients. Our formulas are vegan, cruelty free, and made to feel gentle on the coat and skin.

5. Why is the Rake Brush included in this bundle?

It is the deeper-working brush for mats and dense tangles that need more reach than a finishing brush can give.

6. Should I use a product while using the Rake Brush?

Yes. We recommend using our Emergency Dematter Cream with the Rake Brush whenever you are working through tight mats or dense tangles. Raking on dry hair can create pulling and discomfort for your dog, so softening the area first makes the process much more comfortable.
