The lady was great and the information good but your guys filming needs to be improved. Several of the people you show filing their own content better. It’s hard to see it’s not from the groomers point of view. For example on Jess Rona video asked several times for the person to change the angle. The listened for a few seconds then went back to side view. Not good.
