Groom Professional Dear Santa Shampoo Concentrate 12:1, 4 l

Groom Professional Dear Santa Shampoo is a premium, high-end professional product designed to bring genuine festive cheer, spotless cleanliness and refined care to every grooming salon.

Summary: This seasonal shampoo concentrate is universally formulated for dogs and cats of all breeds and effectively removes unpleasant odours, built-up dust and stubborn greasy sebum from the coat. Its mouth-watering spiced Christmas orange fragrance locks away bad smells and leaves a lasting, invigorating trail. Thanks to its economical 12:1 dilution ratio and the large 4-litre size, the shampoo builds a rich lather, rinses out in a flash and leaves the coat silky soft to the touch, proudly bearing the Made in UK mark.

A festive spa experience, deep cleansing and silky shine

Dear Santa Shampoo is the perfect choice for the winter season and the holidays, when every owner wants their pet to smell amazing. The shampoo gently opens the hair cuticle to draw out layered city dirt and oils, then rinses out completely without leaving a heavy film that would flatten the coat's natural volume. It nourishes the texture of the undercoat and makes subsequent brushing easier.

The balanced formula protects the skin's hydrolipid barrier, helping to prevent dandruff or redness even in sensitive animals. The product improves the elasticity of the hair, gives it a mirror-like radiant shine and protects it from static during drying, leaving it perfectly prepared for final scissoring.

Directions for Use

Dilute the shampoo beforehand at a ratio of 12 parts warm water to 1 part shampoo in a suitable mixing bottle (for example, 50 ml concentrate to 600 ml water). Wet the animal's coat thoroughly with lukewarm water. Apply the diluted ready-to-use shampoo and massage it thoroughly over the whole body until a thick lather forms, avoiding the area around the eyes and the inside of the ears. Leave on the coat for 2-3 minutes to lock in the fragrance as much as possible, then rinse thoroughly under running water. Dry well with a towel and a dryer. The original product label (Dear Santa Shampoo) must be kept fully intact on the container.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1: Why does the shampoo need to be diluted before bathing? Because this is a highly concentrated professional product (12:1), diluting it with warm water properly activates the cleansing ingredients. This helps you spread the lather easily through a dense undercoat and ensures quick rinsing without residue build-up. Question 2: Is the product really completely safe for cats too? Yes, absolutely. The Dear Santa Shampoo formula is veterinary-aligned and safety-tested on both dogs and cats of all breeds. The balanced pH does not irritate sensitive feline skin and washes off easily, leaving no residue to be licked. Question 3: How much ready-to-use shampoo does this large pack make? Thanks to the precise professional 12:1 concentration, one large 4-litre container will make a total of 52 litres of high-quality, ready-to-use working shampoo, which makes the cost per wash in the salon exceptionally low and cost-effective.

Expert Tip

To make the lovely Christmas spiced orange fragrance last as long as possible in the salon or at home, always dilute the 12:1 concentrate with pleasantly warm water in the mixing bottle – the warmth helps the fragrance essences open up much more intensely. During the bath, leave the rich lather on the animal for about 3 minutes while gently massaging in the direction of hair growth. This gives the smoothing agents time to fix the fragrance molecules deep in the cuticle, delivering incredible freshness that owners will notice for weeks after the festive visit.
