Well it says it's available from all good saddlery outlets? I've been to alot but never seen it.

I can't quite understand how it works, but I am completely cr*p at plaiting so it might help me!

How much are they? Might be worth a try?

 

[ecrozier]

Weird! Good idea if it works though....

If someone tries it can they take a photo please

I cn't use bands to plait anyway (I always sew) so doubt I could use them

It looks like those velvet things that used to be popular for creating buns (ie no plaiting at all, just twisting the hair round).

I've had a google and found this http://www.elda.hr/HTML/proizvodi/sophist_o_twist.asp

Looks to me as if it just twists the hair until it twists up on itself. Do you need a gadget for that?

 

[Nosey]

They look a bit like rollers!!

 

[Shipley]

they were in a horse mag new ideas a while ago

 

[Capriole]

i remember those hair thingies, they never worked on my hair

They are very similar to those velvet things for buns only smaller. You can wither plait the mane then twist and secure or just put a section of the mane throught twist a secure. They look ok for dressage but would not be suitable for showing.

Glad I'm not the only confused one!! Just wondered if they would be a quicker alternative for plaiting for dressage and hunting (not really into showing and don't bother for SJ!) Although as Toff has a long mane, I'm not sure they would work
