Mackey Flexi Soft Brush Horse Grooming Body Brush
Description
Mackey Flexi Soft Brush - Comfortable Flexible Grooming Brush
The Mackey Flexi Soft Brush is a soft-bristled horse grooming brush with a flexible back that moulds to the shape of the hand. It is best for finishing a groom, lifting fine dust and loose hair, and working gently over sensitive areas on horses, ponies and cobs.
If you already own a dandy brush or curry comb for heavy mud, this is the brush you reach for afterwards to bring up the natural shine of the coat before schooling, hacking or a show. Browse more grooming kit in our horse grooming collection.

FAQ
Is the Mackey Flexi Soft Brush suitable for sensitive horses?
Yes. The soft bristles are intended for fine dust and loose hair, which makes the brush suitable for sensitive areas such as the face, belly and legs, and for clipped or thin-skinned horses.
What is the flexible back for?
The back moulds comfortably to the shape of the hand, which improves grip and control during grooming and helps the brush stay secure through longer sessions.
Can it remove dried mud?
It is designed as a finishing brush. Use a curry comb or a stiffer dandy brush on caked mud first, then use the Flexi Soft Brush to lift the remaining fine dust and bring up the coat shine.
Will it fit smaller hands?
The flexible back moulds to the hand, so it suits a range of hand sizes, including younger riders helping around the yard.
How do I clean the brush?
Tap out loose hair after each groom, then wash in warm water with a mild brush cleaner when needed and air dry bristles-down away from direct heat.
Can I use it on ponies and cobs?
Yes. The brush is suitable for horses, ponies and cobs of all sizes, and can also be used on the finer areas of a heavier cob's coat.
