If our fursonas existed irl, I'm guessing we'd have to have a full body trim from time to time, especially if you have long fur. I'm guessing telling the barber "Hey can you trim and round my butt fluff plz?" would be a pretty common thing.

Getting a haircut would be almost as intimate as getting a tattoo. (Or in some cases, like my sister's dog and his seasonally dyed under-tail floofs...)
I'm lucky in that rhinos don't really have lots of fur or lots of hair. It's really just on our ears and tail. We just have really thick skin for tank reasons :)
I think the meanest of pranks someone could pull in a furry world is shaving their body while they're sleeping because then theres not much else you can do other than completely shaving ;_;
My old Golden mix had the long fluff on back of legs and butt, tail, what groomers call the “pants”.
She was a mutt, and I’d usually have it trimmed short.
…Top tip, do not tell the groomer, “take her pants down.” 😂
That's a fun thing to think about! I've always wondered if different species might have different fabrics for their fur or feathers. I'd imagine they'd use something that isn't too abrasive for feathers and stuff...gosh I could think about this stuff for hoursss haha
I think there'd be more shedding than a need for getting trimmed but I could definitely see a need for special barbers and places that can handle both. One part of the facility being for shedding with special brushes, the other part for trimming, and the whole place would have industrial vacuums.
Honestly, as someone who has unfortunately become bald / is dealing with balding, I think I’d likely be happy to let it grow nice and long (and perhaps a little scraggly, because I think that’s very gender :3)

There are very few animals that require more than a good brushing to maintain fur length.
It's still the weekend! I say let loose and have a blast my friend :P
Barber: *gulps*

Hmmm...
Reliable business would be found in Greenland dogs, huskies, snow leopards, polar bears, etc.
"Yeah, make it look ✨️fluffy✨️"
