Is it safe for my puppy's first professional grooming after shots?

Question

My dog had his last vaccination over a week ago and I have booked him in for his first professional grooming today but I just wanted to double check that it's okay for him to go as I've read you should wait 2 weeks after the second vaccination before letting them be groomed. The nurse said he could go out on walks a week after his vaccination which was last Friday so I don't see why he'd need to wait.

7-10days after final vaccination should be ok as long as he will be kenneled individually and not mixing closely with the other dogs in to be groomed. Check with the groomers what their individual policy is
