Mane Maintainence

 

It's more than just taking hair off

 

 

Why should you have your horses mane shortened?

  • To remove enough density and length of hair to be able to make button braids

  • To be able to safely use reins without getting tangled in mane, especially when jumping

  • To remove excess mane in circumstances of neck muscle strain, and heat rentention

  • To look presentable for photos, competitions and general use
