How to Use
- Stand the horse squarely on level ground and comb the tail through to remove tangles.
- Decide your finished length — many riders cut level with the fetlock or a hand's width below the hock.
- Gather the tail hair and hold it at your chosen line, keeping the tail in its natural carriage.
- Cut a small amount at a time with the wide blade, working across the hair for a straight, squared edge.
- Use the pointed tips to tidy stray hairs and refine the outline.
- Wipe the blades clean and dry, then store the scissors closed and out of reach of children.
FAQ

Are they only for tails?
They are intended for trimming tails and squaring up tail ends. The wide blade suits thick, dense hair, and the pointed tips allow precise trimming.

Yes — the scissors are a grooming tool rather than a sized fitting item, so they can be used on ponies, cobs, warmbloods and heavy horses alike.
How should I care for them?
Wipe the blades clean and dry after each use, avoid cutting wet, gritty or muddy hair, and store them closed in a dry place to protect the cutting edges.
Is there anything I should know about safety?
Yes. This item contains sharp edges and is intended for use as part of a professional equestrian grooming routine. Take care at all times, use it only for its intended purpose and keep it away from children. Smart Grooming accepts no liability for injury or damage caused by misuse or improper handling.
