Hy Equestrian Progroom Vivid Spring Curry Comb
Description
Hy Equestrian Progroom Vivid Spring Curry Comb
The Hy Equestrian Progroom Vivid Spring Curry Comb is a metal curry comb built with durable circular combs that lift loose hair from the coat and clean hair out of body and dandy brushes. It suits any horse, pony or cob owner who grooms regularly, and it is best for tackling the spring moult and keeping the rest of your grooming kit working properly.
With an easy-grip handle for comfort and control, it is a straightforward, hard-working addition to a yard grooming box rather than a specialist tool - use it alongside your brushes as the step that clears shed hair away.

How to Use
- Tie your horse safely and start with a quick check over the coat for mud, sweat or sensitive areas.
- Work the curry comb in small circular motions over the muscled areas of the neck, shoulders, barrel and quarters.
- Keep pressure moderate and avoid bony areas, the face and the lower legs, where a softer brush is more suitable.
- Flick the lifted hair and dust away with a dandy brush, then finish with a body brush for shine.
- Draw the body or dandy brush across the metal combs every few strokes to clear trapped hair.
- Pull out any remaining hair, rinse the comb in clean water and leave it to dry before storing.

FAQ
What is a curry comb used for?
A curry comb loosens and lifts hair, dust and dried dirt from the coat so it can be brushed away, and it is also used to clean hair out of body and dandy brushes as you groom.
Is a metal curry comb safe to use on my horse?
Used with light to moderate pressure on the fleshy, muscled areas it is fine for most horses. Avoid bony areas, the face and the legs, and switch to a rubber or soft brush for thin-skinned, clipped or sensitive horses.
Is this curry comb good for shedding season?
Yes. The circular metal combs support coat shedding, which makes it particularly useful during the spring moult when horses drop large amounts of winter coat.
Can I use it to clean my other brushes?
Yes. Drawing a body brush or dandy brush across the metal combs clears trapped hair and dust, so the brush keeps lifting dirt rather than spreading it back over the coat.
Will it fit an adult hand comfortably?
The easy-grip handle is designed for comfort and control and suits adult and older junior hands, including longer grooming sessions or multiple horses.
How do I clean and store it?
Pull out any hair caught between the combs, rinse in clean water and allow it to dry fully before putting it back in your grooming box to help prevent rust.
