In a clean head grooming style, which feature is described as left long?

• A. Sides of the face are clipped from ear canal to back of eye, with the muzzle trimmed.
• B. Ears left long and top knot left long.
• C. Muzzle and lower jaw clipped; top knot trimmed.
• D. Entire head clipped short.

Answer: (B)

In a clean head grooming style, leaving hair in certain areas longer is what defines the look. Here, the key idea is that the ears and the top knot are kept long. Keeping the ears long preserves a soft, natural frame around the head, and a longer top knot helps keep hair away from the eyes while maintaining the dog’s traditional silhouette. Other descriptions talk about clipping those areas or shortening the whole head, which wouldn’t be “left long.” So, the feature described as left long is the ears and the top knot.
