FAQ
What is a curry comb used for?
A curry comb is used to loosen dried mud, sweat and shedding hair from the coat before brushing, and to clean dirt out of body and dandy brush bristles during grooming.
What is the difference between the two sides?
One side has fine teeth and the other has coarse teeth. The coarse side suits thick winter coats and heavy mud; the fine side suits lighter dirt and finer coats.
Can I use a metal curry comb on my horse's legs or face?
No. Metal curry combs should only be used on fleshy areas such as the neck, shoulders, barrel and quarters. Keep them away from the legs, face, hips and any bony or sensitive area.
Is it suitable for a clipped horse?
It is best suited to unclipped or thick coats. On a clipped or thin-skinned horse, use very light pressure or switch to a rubber curry comb instead.
Does it help with moulting?
Yes. The metal teeth lift loose hair from thick coats, which makes it a useful tool during the spring and autumn coat change.
How do I look after it?
Tap the teeth clear as you work, wipe the comb after use and let it dry fully. Keep the wooden handle out of standing water and store it in a dry grooming kit or tack box.
