Answer
I spray my long haired cavies with a water bottle.  This makes it easier to comb their hair but don't get them to wet.  As for bathing I only do this as needed.  Reason being as I do not want to dry their skin out and cause them to scratch which in turn causes tangles.  When clipping the nails be sure not to get into the pink area.
