Gia got a big fancy makeover today! We’ve been growing her out for almost a year to be able to put her in a Modified Continental Clip (also referred to as a Historically Correct Continental) and I am so happy with the outcome! This is not a trim I have ever been taught how to do, so it’s definitely not perfect and certainly needs a TON of fixing up, but I’m pretty happy with it as a first draft, especially since I really had no clue what I was doing 🫠
A huge thank to my lovely friend, Myah Riker, who always comes to me with fun ideas for Gia’s grooms, and for maintaining the ridiculous amounts of coat that are needed for trims like these! You really are the MVP of poodle owners👏🏻
