ever bleached or dyed their horses hair???
Just got off phone from friend who is at yard now and one of the liveries has decided to bleach the mane and tail of her 'flaxen' haired pony in time for th shows!!
L'Oreal's best I think she is using! Anyone done this or seen this done? Surely it cant be good for said animal????

I wouldn't like to do it.

In all my years I've never heard of this! Yes some touching up in the show fraternity but to peroxide???

So long as the dye doesn't go down to the roots of the hair - i.e. touch the skin - I can't imagine it would harm.

Never heard of anyone dyeing their horse's hair before but I'm not into showing - maybe it's commonplace

Common in showing......

Sorry think it is not right!

I did do a lot of showing but never saw this done. I did show sec d's though and the most we would do is a bit of boot polish on a body brush gently brushed through mane and tail and plaits night before so as to get the wave in th mane and tail.

I'm with you _OC_ its not meant for horse hair.
