How to Use
- Stand safely to the side of your horse and take a small section of tail hair in your hand.
- Begin at the bottom of the section and brush downwards in short strokes, holding the hair above to protect the roots.
- Work upwards section by section until the whole tail is tangle-free.
- For the mane, part the hair and brush in small sections from the ends towards the crest.
- Separate any heavy mats with your fingers, or apply a detangling spray, rather than forcing the brush through.
- Pull away trapped hair, rinse the brush and allow it to air dry before storing.
FAQ
Can this brush be used on both the mane and the tail?
Yes. It is designed for both, working through knots and loose hair in the mane and down the length of the tail.
Will it pull out too much hair?
The bristles are designed to release knots and loose hair while helping to reduce breakage. Brushing from the bottom of the section upwards, and supporting the hair with your free hand, reduces pulling further.
Is it suitable for ponies as well as horses?
Yes. It suits horses, ponies and cobs, including thick native manes and tails, though heavier mats may need a detangling spray first.
Can I use it with a detangling spray or conditioner?
Yes. Applying a detangler to dry hair before brushing makes stubborn knots easier to release and helps the brush glide through.
How do I clean the brush?
Pull away any trapped hair after grooming, rinse the brush in clean water and leave it to air dry before putting it back in your grooming kit.
Is it suitable for show preparation?
Yes. It leaves the mane and tail neat and shiny, making it useful for finishing off before a show or in-hand class as well as for daily grooming.
