Am I the only one

Erm, I'd suggest practising on a very patient horse that doesn't mind being groomed - you've said before you cant get anywhere near Neds back legs so standing almost being him fiddling with his tail would make the chances of getting booted in the face very high!! :D

I practised on my own hair for a while and got to grips with the whole process of adding bits in generally - didn't matter what it looked like then as I couldn't see it! I'm still not very good at tails though, and don't think I ever will be!

A few months back, I wouldn't have dared, he raised his leg at the slightest excuse (Only actually kicked out at me once, but I don't think he wanted to get me...really!)
I've been working with him a bit and I can groom his tail, walk behind him and put a hi-viz tail bandage on him with no fuss :) However, I will practice on Delilah, the poor girl is stuck inside with laminitis and thoroughly enjoys a groom and a fuss!

I'm ok with manes, but I rock at tails! :D Often get roped in to do them for others... :D Having had long hair most of my life helps, and having a pony with a massive tail helps, too! :D

Did you do that mane in your signature? :O I adore that style! Though, Ned has the silliest, most pathetic mane, so no chance of me doing it :P
I wish I could rope my friend into doing it, she's epic at doing tails, but she's at work most of the time and now rides my other friend's horses instead of coming with me :(
 
The strange thing is I can do it on my own hair, working back to front but when I am faced with the tail in front of me never been able to do it lol, ok with the mane but tails are a problem keep trying and keep ending up with a mess, I always have to get a friend to do it :)
