Is there not a standard term I can use? I tell them I want a "full puppy cut", which I understood to mean that all the hair on the face is long.
a full puppy cut can mean anything LOL puppy cut usually means same length on body and legs, it has nothing to do with the head really. You need to specify how long on the body and legs you want it and you need to tell them what exactly you want done to the head. A full face just means that you want the hair all over the head left longer, it really has nothing to do with the eye area. If i were given those instructions, i'd trim the eye area too.

next time you take him to the groomer as for a full face and specifically tell them to not cut the hair under his eyes or on his nose. tell them you want to grow it out. hopefully that will work, but i can't guarantee it. LOL
