On Sunday, June 7, 2026, the grooming world had its eyes fixed on Wales for the annual Cymru Groom event. Thanks to Matthew Spry’s impeccable organization, the event brought together talented groomers from all corners of Europe. Among them, one competitor particularly stood out for her boldness and talent: Molly Taminiaux.
A bold move for a first in the Champion class!
Advancing to the Champion Class is a major turning point in a groomer’s career. For her debut in this prestigious category (Poodle Class), Molly didn’t just follow the beaten path.
She chose to break the mold by giving a Poodle a Terrier-style cut! ✂️🐩 This strategic and technical choice—particularly risky in front of a jury of experts—demonstrates her artistic vision and her perfect mastery of morphological standards.
A reward for hard work and passion!
The verdict is in, and Molly’s risk has paid off handsomely. Not only did she take home a magnificent 2nd place 🥈 in an extremely competitive Standard Poodle Champion class, but she also earned one of the most coveted titles in the competition:
🏆 The “Best International Groomer” Award
This trophy recognizes not only today’s technical performance, but also Molly’s influence on the international stage. It is a testament to the fact that creativity, when combined with rigorous technique, leads to the highest achievements.
The adventure is just beginning for Molly!
Behind every great champion is a passionate team. The entire Diamex team is extremely proud to support Molly as she takes on her challenges. Her hard work, her love for animals, and her drive for perfection are a source of inspiration for all of us. 🎖️💪
Congratulations again to Molly on her flawless performance at the 2026 Cymru Groom. This is just the beginning of a year that’s already shaping up to be historic!
