Not really my diva tendencies but I have a horse with a very squint blaze :rolleyes: which means we sometimes get comments on tilting head when he isn't :(
One dressage instructor suggested a noseband with the white piping to make it more obvious he is not tilting. Of course others say this is nonsense and they should look at the ears to check if they are tilting but in practice they don't!! It is very deceptive as I can see in arena mirrors how easy it is to think he is tilting when he isn't.

So does anyone know where I can get one of these nosebands? There was a one in horse magazine this month by Harrys Horse or something but not seen it available to buy online
 
So B's not bringing out his make up bag again this season?! :p

They seem very fashionable in dressage, so I'm sure you'll hunt one down no bother. Admit it though... you are just a wannabe dressage diva, next it'll be a blingy browband... then dead sheep everywhere... there'll be no stopping you! ;)

I still have the make up!! And it did mean we got no comments on head tilting that test!! But when you see the pics :eek: OMG it looked terrible!! Not sure I could put him through the humiliation again.....

As to the dead sheep - we have 2 of our own left that could fulfil a dead sheep role later in the summer ;) but really it would have to be PURPLE sheepskin :rolleyes::p

As for finding one I have yet to locate one or maybe I am just really bad internet shopper!!
 
Ebay

Hmm they used to be much more readily available, can hardly find any now.

Oi FJ stop trying to turn B into a cross dressing stressage diva!

Sorry I should have been more specific it needs to be a flash.
Like the one in FJ link but unless am being blind they don't do white and colour would be a step too far :eek:
The KN one looks lovely but pricey! Due to Bs colouring I think he would suit white rather than silver or gold....

From other threads on here... buyer beware... reads like when they're good they're good, but there's a decent number of not-so-good reports.

Which is why I wasn't sure about a couple of the links I was finding as hard to know which of the smaller/lesser known sites are good and trustworthy and which aren't.
 
I bought a lovely padded one from FSS and had it custom made. If you type in FSS bridle into ebay a stockist comes up. She is called Honey and very helpful. here is pic of mine. If u want her details pm me and will send them. You can choose to have a flash or not and whethe ru want it padded etc. Sorry fro size of pic...don't kno how to make them smaller

I have used them a couple of times and had nothing but great results but have seen the threads you mean. Worth a chat with them maybe to see what they offer.
 
**has a small smirk about DHB's diva tendencies** i have a GFS bridle that has silver piping, maybe they do a white one? its a nice bridle actually...think i just googled it
