ALL-IN-ONE SHAMPOO , Product of Year and #1 for Stains

Product of the Year!  Best horse shampoo

Horse Salve, Whitener and Shampoo

ALL-IN-ONE SHAMPOO is all you’ll need. It does the work of daily, anti-fungal, anti-itch, whitening and color shampoos, shine agents, conditioners, detanglers and scratches medication with superior results. Most shampoos use salt (sodium chloride) to make the lather. They parch skin strip natural oils and leaving coats susceptible to skin disease. Plus, the dry porous hair is thirsty- grabbing onto everything. Lucky Braids Shampoo is SATURATED with ALOE VERA, leaving coats nourished moisturized, so they stay cleaner longer.

Since we use only the finest, PHARMACEUTICAL-GRADE of nature’s best antiseptic anti-fungal TEA TREE OIL, horses bathed with Lucky Braids have no scurf, crud, dander, rainrot, itching or scratches (as long as you dry legs before putting them in a stall, of course). It also makes braiding clean manes and clipping easier.

Economical concentrate rinses clean and fast. Plus, you won’t need to buy, manage or ship so many products. This shampoo is the most effective, easy to use and cost-effective.

TAIL TIP: Comb clean tails while wet. To protect the roots, twist the length and hold the bottom. Using a fat comb, always start from the bottom as you work your way up the wet tail. Organize hair to roots. Tails dry full and fluffy while resisting tangles. No expensive detanglers or conditioners are needed.

More on rubbing and scratches

"One of my horses had a terrible problem with rubbing her mane and tail for years (especially in the summer), and up until I purchased this product, I couldn't find a solution. And believe me, I tried EVERYTHING. I was honestly a little skeptical, but after the first use, the rubbing stopped immediately, and I didn't notice any signs of further irritation for at least a month. Then, I applied it again and the rubbing stopped for good. This stuff is worth every penny, and a little goes a long way, so it really is cost effective. Try it, you won't be disappointed!"

Lucky Braids Braiding Yarn $10.00
Lucky Braids Yarn
Colors

Strong with stretch for straight, sturdy braids that maintain a neat, clean line all day. Won't loosen if a horse sweats or gets a bath. Match your horse's mane to make the neck look longer and rounder. Available by the skein.

"We were also impressed with Lucky Braids by Ruthann’s Yarn, which offers everything a braider looks for in a braiding material. Lucky Braids yarn is easy on the hands and remarkably strong—we couldn’t break it when we tried! But it is also thin and creates knots that are practically invisible when made correctly.”
