How to Install a Mane Extension

Before You Begin

• Start with a clean, dry mane.
• Brush through the horse's natural mane and the extension.
• Match the extension placement with the horse's existing mane for the most natural look.

Installation

1. Section off a small amount of the horse's mane where you want the extension.
2. Secure the extension to the braid or attachment point according to your extension design utilizing the kit provided - refer to videos provided.
3. Blend the horse's natural hair over the attachment.
4. Gently brush to ensure a seamless appearance.
5. Style as desired for the class or event.

Pro Tip: Less is often more. Proper placement creates fullness without looking bulky.

Daily Care

• Brush gently from the ends upward.
• Hold the hair above where you're brushing to reduce stress on the attachment.
• Use a soft-bristle or extension-safe brush.
• Keep the extension clean and free of bedding and burrs.
• Braid the mane when not showing to reduce tangles.

Before Showing

• Remove any shavings or dust.
• Lightly mist with a conditioning spray if needed (avoid heavy oils near the attachment).
• Smooth flyaways with a soft brush.
• Double-check that the attachment is secure before entering the pen.

After Showing

• Gently brush out tangles.
• Remove excess show sheen buildup if necessary.
• Utilize a loose braid if wearing the extension overnight and a sleazy.
• If removing the extension, brush it out before storing.

Washing

Only wash when needed.

1. Use cool to lukewarm water.
2. Apply a mild sulfate-free shampoo.
3. Rinse thoroughly.
4. Apply conditioner mainly to the mid-lengths and ends.
5. Allow to air dry completely before storing or reinstalling.

Avoid twisting or wringing the hair.

Storage

• Store clean and completely dry.
• Keep in a breathable bag or protective sleeve.
• Avoid direct sunlight and excessive heat.
• Brush before storing to prevent matting.

Tips for Long-Lasting Extensions

• Never yank through knots.
• Keep horses from rubbing whenever possible.
• Avoid excessive silicone sprays at the attachment.
• Remove before prolonged turnout if recommended for your style of extension.
• Regular maintenance will significantly extend the life of the extension.
