About Karnak Dog Grooming
Karnak Dog Grooming is a small, appointment-based grooming salon in Glen Waverley, run by founder and lead groomer Angel, who brings more than a decade of experience and an award-winning reputation to the bench. The salon takes small and medium dogs only, and has built its name on stylised scissor work rather than volume.
The focus here is on creative styling done by hand: Asian Fusion and Teddy Bear cuts are the house specialities, alongside the rounded Happy Ball Head look for bichons. Sessions are unhurried, typically running two to three hours, and the salon leans on a gentle, calm approach that suits nervous dogs as much as it suits owners chasing a polished finish. Consistency is part of the philosophy, with regular grooming encouraged to keep coats healthy and styles holding between visits.
With demand often booked out a couple of weeks ahead, Karnak reads as a salon for owners who want a settled, ongoing relationship with one groomer rather than a quick wash.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Teddy Bear or Asian Fusion grooming?
These are the salon's signature styling cuts, created through expert scissoring to enhance a dog's natural look. Signature finishes include the Teddy Bear style for poodles and the Happy Ball Head style for bichons.
Does Karnak groom large dogs?
No. The salon specialises in small to medium-sized breeds and does not offer grooming services for large dogs.
How often should my dog be groomed?
For dogs with longer coats, grooming every 4 to 6 weeks is recommended to maintain coat health and prevent matting and skin issues. The salon prioritises clients on this regular schedule due to limited availability.
How long does a grooming session take?
Sessions run between 2 and 3 hours, covering thorough cleaning, hand-drying, precision scissoring, and a finish with dog cologne.
Are same-day appointments available?
No. The salon is often fully booked up to two weeks in advance, and clients are encouraged to pre-book their next appointment before leaving.
What vaccinations does my dog need?
Proof of an up-to-date C5 vaccination is required before the first grooming session, and it must be current within 7 days of the appointment. Puppies can be groomed once fully vaccinated, typically around 16 weeks old.
What payment methods are accepted?
The salon accepts Visa, Mastercard and EFTPOS.
Is sedation ever used during grooming?
No. Sedation is never used. If a dog is uncooperative, the session may be ended early for the dog's safety.
