For others who might be having this same question and find/read this thread, I found the following online also:

Feathers in VVS grades​

• Older methods of bruting (shaping a diamond’s girdle) caused what’s called bearding; tiny, microscopic feathers along the girdle. In some cases this is so insignificant that the diamond could remain VVS1 or VVS2.
• Whether bruted or faceted, hairline feathers at the girdle tend to fall into VVS1-VVS2 much of the time.
• VVS1-VVS2 feathers may even be considered to have less impact than pinpoints, needles or clouds.
