Mane and Tail as far as any detangler or conditioning goes. Used to work for a big time team roper (odd right?) that swore by it and I saw the results. I also worked for a reined cowhorse trainer that had a system in which I never saw it fail. Condition the tails thoroughly, let dry, then braid them and soak them in glycerin (ethnic section at Walmart). Then we would fold the tail up and wrap in vet wrap. We redid them every 2 weeks or as necessary. Every horse's tail drug grew multiple inches inbetween. I will see if I can attach pictures.

I don't know if this does anything for growth but it sure makes a nice shine.  It's a recipe for a homemade spray I found and made up a batch last week.  I tripled it and it filled 2 spray bottles.

1/4 Cup any kind of hair conditioner 
14 Cup baby oil
3 Tb vinegar
1/4 Cup water
I also added a couple drops of Eucalyptus oil (smells good and helps remove residue)
Mix altogether.  If it seems a little too thick add a little more water.  Pour into old spray bottles.

You have to shake it real well before spraying.  When it is warm enough I'n going to try to rub some of this into the base of the mane and tail and see if it helps with growth too.

I agree with the coconut oil. I actually just made some homemade detangler the other day.

I used a half cup of fractionated coconut oil, EVOO (2 table spoons), lavender essential oil(2 drops), and mixed with water. So far so good!
I made sure I really got his tail head good and then just ran my fingers though.

Afterwards, he wanted to lick my hands!
