Does anyone have a product that will straighten a mane or tail? My filly here lately has seemed to collect ringlets in her mane and then those wrap together and then create witches knots. My horses tails tend to spin as well, but they don't usually get the rotten knots in them.
I unknotted her yesterday to find the prettiest ringlets you ever did see. My curling iron doesn't do that! lol

Good chance it is the lack of moisture. My horses get that along with static when in pasture. Broodmares I just don't bother worrying about it anymore. They get the witches knots that I just cut out in the spring. But my pretty pali colt gets the knots too when he is in pasture. He has human like, fine-soft hair. Last fall, the last warm day of the year, I was able to try the EquiFuse. I swear by that stuff. He doesn't have the curlies, but no knots either. I rubbed the Gleam on his mane about a month ago and it is still soft and nice. His tail not so much lol. I wasn't about to waste any products on it without a good cleaning. It's not knotted but really dirty.
