Bear Grips Pro ShopsEmbroidered Pet Grooming Smocks for Branded Salon Identity
- Embroidered smocks layer a stitched salon logo on a long-sleeve cotton or performance overshirt.
- Embroidery typically outlasts the fabric. The shirt wears out before the stitched logo does.
- No minimum order, $29.88 long-sleeve smock base price.
- Stitched chest patch is the standard placement; back upper for larger graphic, sleeve for tagline.
Embroidered pet grooming smocks are the polished version of the branded long-sleeve uniform. The stitched logo reads more permanent than a printed graphic, holds up against the daily wash cycle better than print, and gives the salon the polished look that competes with a chain-salon uniform program. Below is how the embroidered smock program works through Pro Shops, what placements work best for salon logos, and the price math against the printed-graphic alternative.
Embroidery vs print on a grooming smock
| Aspect | Embroidery | |
|---|---|---|
| Wear life | Outlasts the fabric | Holds for 100+ washes with care |
| Look | Polished, premium | Casual, athletic |
| Logo size flexibility | Best at 2-4 inch chest placement | Any size up to full back |
| Full-color logos | Limited thread color count | Full color photographic prints fine |
| Cost | Same per-piece base as printed | Same per-piece base as embroidered |
Standard embroidered smock placements
- Left chest: salon logo three to four inches wide. The standard placement.
- Right chest: staff first name embroidered in two-inch text
- Sleeve: salon tagline or phone number for mobile groomers
- Back collar (printed tape): optional salon tagline visible when the collar shows
Salon logo styles that embroider cleanly
- Wordmark in block letters: cleanest embroidery, reads well from a distance
- Single icon plus wordmark: paw print, dog silhouette, scissors mark plus the salon name. Standard pet salon logo style.
- Crest with limited color count: 3 to 4 thread colors works well, more than 5 starts to look busy in embroidery
- Avoid: photographic gradients, fine watercolor washes, ultra-thin lines under 1px (these look better as print)
Pricing the embroidered smock run
| Item | VIP base (with embroidered logo and name) | Standard VIP base |

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
Is there a setup fee for the embroidered salon logo?
No. Upload the logo file once, digitize for embroidery once, print as many embroidered pieces as you want with no per-design setup fee.
Can the embroidered smock include the staff member name?
Yes. Staff first name on the right chest is standard. Each smock prints per order so different staff names go on different smocks in the same shop order.
How long does the embroidered smock take to ship?
About a week US delivery from order placement, same as printed pieces.
Will the embroidered logo hold up to daily washing with bleach and dryer heat?
Yes. Embroidered logos typically outlast the cotton fabric itself. The shirt wears out before the embroidered logo shows wear.
