Okay, so I'm starting to train my mare for halter classes, and need help getting a fluffier, flowier tail (If that makes sense??). Today I spent like, an hour brushing through her tail, braiding, and re-braiding while she grazed around my yard and helped with Easter decorating. If you know any good products I should look for while shopping for summertime bath stuff over the coming weeks, let me know.
Any help would be appreciated, and if it's requested, I can get pics of her helping to finish decorating tomorrow (For the heck of it).
EDIT: Could also use shampoo ideas! Edited at March 17, 2019 07:47 PM by Newleaf Stables

Honestly, plain canola oil has done wonders for my Geldings tail :)

i love cowboy magic detangler! Also To make it thicker try not to braid to tight and don't brush it out with a mane and tail brush use a hard brush!

Do you know the price? And would it work with both a wide tooth and a smaller tooth comb? It's a half wide/half smaller tooth comb. And by thickness, do you mean the tail? Because it's not an issue until you get closer to the bottom, so I might trim it.

For a 32oz bottle 44.95 but is worth Every penny! I don't recommend combs as it breaks off the hair and cause damage also it thins the tail. A lot of people in halter the tail stops at the fetlock so don't trim it to short. What halter discipline is this English or western ? Edit: And for shampoo Mane and tail works great! I use conditioner too! Edited at March 17, 2019 09:01 PM by Travelers' Farm

I personly always use babyshampoo on my horses, tail and body. You also can get Children/Baby Detangler!
Everything that is for a baby is ok for a horse, even my vet keeps telling me that lol
