In my practice we have a strong suction black and Decer, wall mounted hand held hoover for post clipping.i find that this works well to oick ip those straying hairs! however cleaning it can be a bit of a pain!

Hi Dave, we just use a bog standard Argos Value one, it does the job perfectly well. If the filters are regularly cleaned then hopefully odours shouldn't be a problem. We used lint rollers in my last practice but eventually we converted to dustbusters. Happy hovering

We have a little handheld hoover not sure what make but I find that sometimes it really starts to smell throughout the day so personally prefer not to use it. I tend to use a lint roller on the skin to pick up the loose hair not sure how acceptable that is :S
