Default Eye hair and whisker decision time.

I have to make a decision today whether to cut the hair around Joni's eyes or not. I'm grooming her myself (learning as I go) and her face is my biggest concern. I know the short hair under her eyes has been trimmed in the past - my vet did it once and she's been professionally groomed a few times

The under eye hair is sticking out and it stays gunky. It will not lay down. I don't 'think' it's sticking into her eye but it certainly obscures her vision. She hates to have her face messed with or to even be looked at closely.

The other issue is the whiskers. Where did all of those come from? (She's 10 mos old). It's like a broom on her face. I've read opinions regarding to trim or not and I'm leaning toward trimming. I don't feel her face stays clean with all the bristle.

This pic is not Joni - I found it on Jenny's website while looking for Halloween costumes (I hope it's ok to post the link). But I love this face and the cut, but would want to keep Joni's topknot.

Do I need to cut eye hair and whiskers to get this look? Opinions please??
