They are best for grooms, producers and riders who plait regularly for showing, dressage and everyday yard turnout, and they come in a choice of black, white or brown so the bands can be matched to the mane colour or used as a deliberate contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBecause the silicone stretches and grips without hard edges, the bands sit close to the plait and hold securely while staying easy to remove at the end of the day. The tub keeps 1,000 bands organised in one place rather than loose in the bottom of a grooming box.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,000 bands per tub\u003c\/strong\u003e - a substantial supply in a compact container\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour choice\u003c\/strong\u003e - black, white or brown to suit a range of manes and looks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoft silicone\u003c\/strong\u003e - comfortable stretch with a secure, snag-free hold\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmooth edges\u003c\/strong\u003e - keep plaits neat and unobtrusive\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlip-top lid with clip\u003c\/strong\u003e - one-handed access and resealable for travel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHard-wearing\u003c\/strong\u003e - silicone resists wear and keeps its elasticity after repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile\u003c\/strong\u003e - plaits, cornrows, ponytail accents and quick sectioning across different hair textures and thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmart Grooming\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSilicone Plaiting Bands, Tub of 1000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,000 bands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColours\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, white, brown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSilicone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eContent Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApproximately 50 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePackaging\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic tub with flip-top lid and clip, resealable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eDampen the mane lightly and comb it to one side, then divide it into even sections using bands to hold each section.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlait each section down to the end, keeping the tension even.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWrap a silicone band around the bottom of the plait two or three times until it holds firmly without digging in.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRoll or fold the plait up as required and secure with a second band, thread or tape depending on your preferred finish.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTo remove, ease the band off the hair or cut it carefully with a quick unpick, taking care not to cut the mane.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eClose the flip-top lid and clip the tub shut so the remaining bands stay contained in your plaiting kit.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eBrowse more \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/grooming\"\u003ehorse grooming products\u003c\/a\u003e to complete your plaiting and turnout kit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many bands are in the tub?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach tub contains 1,000 silicone plaiting bands, with a content weight of approximately 50 g.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colours are available?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bands are supplied in a choice of black, white and brown, so you can match the band to the mane colour or pick a contrast shade for a bolder show finish.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the bands snag or pull the mane?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe silicone bands have smooth edges and a comfortable stretch, which helps them hold securely without snagging the hair.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan they be used on tails and forelocks as well as manes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
