- In this video I give tips on how to grow a longer mane on a horse and how to keep the mane long. When you braid up the mane it keeps the mane from getting pulled out, knotted up, and just being handled. The more often you brush it, the more hair comes out over time.
This was so so so sooooooo helpful right now! My horse's mane has always been so short and dull, but its slowly growing :D
Oh I'm so happy to see you're back!! You are my absolute favorite horse person on youtube to date. ^_^ Oh and I second the updated barn tour, or if you could do some 'riding tip' kind of videos, I'd really love that, if you don't mind.
I am so so happy you're posting videos again!!
I love you so much!
Okay, so here is my take on this despite that fact obviously no one asks my opinion XD
Yes, braids can pull on the horse's mane, but they also supplement blood flow! Which, therefore, supplements growth. I would recommend washing with olive oil (Do it for your own hair too! It's great!) and then putting maybe some coconut oil in it while braiding. Also, if you redo your braids a lot, try running braiding rather than just straight braids! Especially if your horse is a rubber! Instead of pulling on the top hair of the braid like it normally would, that section will fall out almost undamaged! Works really nice on my boy!
I love you're channel!!!! More videos please!
The lead rope hooked to the halter is way tied to tight. The horse 🐴 can't put its head down. I don't know if that is just the horse or no. If it is sorry for my own misunderstanding
your horse is really pretty and good job with the video! :)
Love your video and your horse is beautiful! Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely gonna have to get me some of that conditioner! I love Cowboy Magic too but do you know that one of the main ingredients is a type of silicon?
I tried this and my horse rolled and the braids got stuck to eachother and turned into dreadlocks. I had to cut his mane into a mohawk 😂 I dont braid it now unless I plan on taking it out on the same day
Wow you must have left those braids in for a LONG time!!!
I love the result and smell of cowboy magic!!
Oh thanks your horse is sosososo adorable
use a little coconut oil!!! it's really greasy so maybe only a little once in a while but it's a great conditioner and will help the hair grow... all while moisturizing your hands a lot XD
Nikki B. You can put coconut oil in while the hair is wet it won’t be so greasy just don’t over do it
The best coconut oil to use is the 'fractionated' or liquid coconut oil. I use the brand 'Natures Way' on my own hair and in many of my homemade cosmetic products.
Even if you were to put the braid tight at the base, it wouldn't hurt the horse because horses have no nerves in their necks and can't feel any thing that pulls their necks
Hi beautiful horse :)
But I do wonder, you say "no sikicone" but you use what I assume is "cowboy magic- detangler" the first 2 ingredients ate silicone. The fist (Cyclomethicone) is washable from the hair and less "build up and drying" than ingredient nr two (Dimethicone) is one of the very "silicon -y" ones.
Just thought it might be good to know since the all natural (and sometimes very expensive) products then are not as effektiv :)
Darn phone and spelling -.-"
"no silicone" and "are" (not ate)
at 1:08 it looks like your horse is crying look at his lips
love your channel keep up the good work
Perfect name for your Arabian horse 😉😁✨
will shoeshine work
I go on stateline tack too
How do you get the braids to stay I that long
Updade video or barn tour?
Where did you get your halter? And what type of string are you using? I just got my first horse, so I am still learning. Thank you!
Melissa Marszycki what breed? And how is it going?????
when did you get your horse
what is the string for? sorry- but i was wondering
isabella Howell it is how she keeps the braid in place, like a rubber band yet the string doesn't pull out hair
What did you do to make the mane grow back where it was bit off? I’m having trouble with that right now
It usually just takes time to grow. I've head coconut oil helps? I've never tried it myself however
Do you use the same principles on your own hair you have gorgeous hair yourself!
My wife has hair that's nearly 4 feet long, and she uses horse products on her own hair. They work much better, and her hair is beautiful. She swears on Cowboy Magic--loves the stuff!!
I did a horrible job explaining everything in this video my camera kept shutting off and it got really annoying!! The string is used versus a rubber band because 1) they stay in much longer and don't pull the hair when taking it out and 2) overtime rubber bands can damage the hair if the band is pinching the same place for long periods of time.
Where did you get the levine conditioner
?
i have seen u somewhere but cant figure it out lol
I heard baby oil works... dose it?
Kara Mitchell if you wouldn’t put an oil like that in your own hair why put it in your horse’s?
@@shannonmoffitt5489 human hair is much different than horse hair
Arabians have naturally long thick hair.
omg - geaurgess
I love cowboy magic but that is way too much, that stuff is expensive and you only need a tiny bit🙃
Hehe... "detangular". 2:38
you know, it the horse goes too long with a braid it starts hurting in their roots and it will stop growing until you take the braid out.
Braiding a horses mane well brake the strand of hair and I know cuz my horses mane is around 3ft long and is now at 2.6cuz of keeping it plaited and never letting it down
There's a proper way to brush your horses mane so nah I won't through my brush away a horse at my stables has a mare that has a mare so long and it gets brushed and cared for everyday
my name is zahra
at 7:40 did the horse fart ?????????
No, it snorted.
Did u just say 1 and a half hour to braid her hair😃, u tripping
You shouldn't leave braids in your horses hair the braids make the area around the horses mane sore and it can be more prone to breakage of the hair. Love your video though.
Even though she's doing the top loose?
If you continue to braid your own hair no matter how loose, the action of braiding it can cause breakage and split ends, so can the rubber bands! You need a healthy mix of braids and it being let loose so their hair can can rest
I agree have had horses 50 years and NEVER leave a mane or tail braided more that one day due to the breakage/constant pull. My own braid hurts after awhile. Also the horse's head was tied pretty darn high which hinders respiratory drainage.
I keep my horse's mane in braids and he has never found it irritating, if he did I'd know about it because he'd try to rub it out. I need to keep it in braids otherwise it gets tangled in his rug, my reigns and everything else. Since he rolls a lot it also keeps it fairly clean. Everyone has their methods but what matters is that the horse is happy, mine doesn't try to itch or rub out his braids so he has no problem with it :)
Braids are fine as long as you don't use rubberbands. I personally use duct tape
Split ends? Just trim the freaking ends. And stop balling the hair up and the rubbing it. Your damaging the cuticles.
i’m furious right now. i tried this out and only kept the braids in for about a week and a half. i took the braids out and chunks of my horses mane fell out with it. this lady sucks at giving advice. i will definitely never be back to your channel again and you need to check to make sure your tips actually work before you post them. so if the creator of this videos reads this, i would delete this video so you don’t make anyone else mad.
I am really sorry to hear that you had this issue. I just wanted to make sure that you know that horses also shed their mane hair just like humans do. There is a normal amount of hair that humans (and horses) loose throughout the day. If you braid the hair, the loose hairs can’t fall out so if you undo the braid, all of them are going to be visible at once which is why it seems like it’s A LOT. But trust me, it’s not. It’s just all the loose hair that your horse lost over the time which got caught in the braid.
Love your video and your horse is beautiful! Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely gonna have to get me some of that conditioner! I love Cowboy Magic too but do you know that one of the main ingredients is a type of silicon?
