How to treat and avoid baldness on horse’s faces
By Ruthann Smith
Hair Loss on faces is a grooming error. If you leave sweat on horses' skin, it dries out and pores get clogged. This also leads tack and halters to rub. There may be bacteria issues as well, but the solution is always the same: CLEAN the face before and after riding. A damp towel can do wonders. Vigorous grooming stimulates natural protective oils as well as exfoliates to release them. So, gently groom faces well.
If you do wrestle with hair loss, Lucky Braids All-In-One Horse Shampoo will help promote healing and quick re-growth of hair from loss or rubs.
ESPAÑOL- El sudor reseca la piel y obstruye los poros. Lava la cara con una toalla húmeda (cuando hace calor) antes y despuès de montar. Sepillando y usando bien la toalla, va a traer aceites naturales a la piel. Tambien, quita piel muerta. Como resultado, el cabello estará más saludable y humeda.
