A wool coat is dense and curly; grooming should include what practice?

• A. Regular bathing with no brushing
• B. Detangling with conditioner only
• C. Regular straightening using heat and slicker brush
• D. Letting hair mat and avoiding grooming

Answer: (C)

Dense, curly wool coats tend to tangle and mat if they’re not regularly brushed and detangled. Using heat in combination with a slicker brush helps relax the curls enough to straighten and smooth the coat, so the brush can reach knots and undercoat more effectively. This makes detangling easier, helps distribute conditioner evenly, and keeps the coat manageable and less prone to matting. Bathing without brushing, detangling with conditioner alone, or letting the hair mat and avoiding grooming all increase the risk of stubborn tangles—so regularly straightening with heat and brushing is the best routine for this coat type.
