Do Aussiedoodles always need grooming/haircuts?

My girl Kiki is 4 months old and sheds moderately. I’d like to grow out her coat for as long as possible before her first haircut, just to see how long it can get, but I was wondering what the general consensus is on whether grooming/haircuts are always a necessity for this breed? Or if sometimes they can have more of an Aussie coat that only requires daily brushing

Side note: I do intend to trim around her eyes at home just so she can see better
