hair extensions

Can extensions be legally used on manes and tails for showing?

We have a horse who wore the centre section of her mane off reaching thru fences and thru the winter it does not seem like it will have grown in to cover the short section.

Only in park harness.

I love the spray on rose oil conditioner! It works fabulous!

 

[Genie]

THank you for the info on "rose oil". I don't recall ever seeing rose oil in any tack stores but would not have been looking for it either

No mane extensions may be used at all, only "false tails" can be used in Park harness classes.

You could also try MTG for growing out the rubbed off part.

Ill have to try the rose oil, I use it on the body for shine and conditioning, but didnt know it would help with regrowth. I have a horse I bought over the summer whos old owner gave him a HUGE bridle path (2/3 of his mane) and I would like to show him with more mane. Same deal with his forelock, it was about as thick as a pencil, much much thinner than I prefer.

Yes you have gotten some good advice, but, from my experience the judges won't mark you down. My daughter has a mare that rubbed off a big chunk of mane, had a bald area about three inches long. We only got it to grow back about two inches total before show season, we just combed the front back and used lots of oil and the mare was Champion mare at her first show.

 

[Genie]

THanks everyone. I might be able to comb it over a bit. I will definitely look for Rose Oil as it sounds like a good product to have on hand.

 

[jeniemac]

ROSE OIL IS REALLY GOOD FOR THAT BUT I ALSO INCREASE THE PROTEIN IN THEIR FEED.

Jean I am not slamming no one. What I am saying she the trainer that had should of known what to do. I bet this is not the first time she or you have heard this
