There are a number of items needed for show prep in addition to the normal everyday grooming kit. First of all, you may want to braid or plait your horse’s mane and tail depending on the type of competitions you are taking part in. Braiding can be secured with either a needle and thread or small bands, or a combination of the two. Finish off with some hairspray or hair hold which will tame tiny pieces of fine hair to create a neat finish to show off your your horse or pony's neck perfectly. Also essential is a plait aid, or small mane comb which will divide up the hair into even sections with a perfect straight parting before you braid. If your horse's mane is very thick a pulling comb can thin any troublesome areas in readiness for plaiting. Our Mane Braiding Kits are the perfect tool to keep all your plaiting needs handy whilst keeping your hands free to plait your horse's mane.

Those who have grey horses always need to work twice as hard to get them sparkling clean and there are some very handy tools of the trade to assist with this. White chalk blocks or sticks are great for solid coloured horses that have white socks and white markings on the legs, or face whilst loose chalk powder is practical for full feathers and to sprinkle through a white tail.

Other key items for show prep include safety razors to remove whiskers and fine hair around the muzzle and jawline for that chiselled profile. A polishing mitt is a perfect tool for that last minute work over the horse’s coat before finishing with a show sheen spray; the mitt is much easier than a brush to work into all those hard to access crevices and corners. Finally, finish your look with is hind quarter markers as nothing completes the job better than a seriously symmetrical design on a super shiny set of quarters.

We also sell Ear Plugs for your horse which are designed to allow your horse to hear normal tones, while greatly reducing distracting or loud noises. Pomms Ear Plus are a favourite amongst showies, and they are now available in both full size and pony.
