Designed to work through knots and tangles while caring for every strand, the Hairy Pony Mane and Tail Brush is an everyday essential for maintaining your horse's mane and tail.
Smooth, rounded metal pins glide through the hair to gently separate tangles while helping to minimise unnecessary pulling and breakage. Mounted into a flexible cushioned pad, the pins move with the hair as you brush, making it easier to work through thick manes, full tails and stubborn knots.
Finished with our signature hand-crafted beechwood handle, it's comfortable to hold, beautifully made and designed to earn a permanent place in your grooming kit.
Also available in Mini, designed especially for smaller hands.
Designed For
Purpose-built for detangling and maintaining horse manes and tails.

Materials
Crafted with a hand-finished beechwood handle, flexible cushioned pad and smooth, rounded metal pins.
Beechwood was chosen for its durability, natural feel and timeless finish, while the cushioned pad allows the metal pins to flex and move with the hair as you brush.
How To Use
Before brushing, gently separate any particularly large knots with your fingers.
Starting at the ends of the hair, brush through small sections at a time and gradually work your way upwards. When working through a tail, hold the hair above the section you're brushing to reduce unnecessary tension through the roots.
For particularly tangled manes and tails, pair with your favourite Hairy Pony detangling product before brushing.
Dimensions
Approximately 24.5cm (L) x 9cm (W).
Personalise It
Make your grooming kit your own with optional engraving on the wooden handle.
Add your name, your horse’s name or a stable name for a personalised brush that’s easy to identify at home, around the stable or away at competitions.

Love ❤️ It is very good at untangling the tail. Best mane brush I’ve used.
Love all the products especially happy with this brush works well can even use it to brush my own hair.
My horses have never had such hydrated beautiful coats and tails prior to your range
Absolutely love the conditioning hydration and ease to manage thick tails.
This is the best brush I have ever owned! Instead of taking ten minutes to brush through my pony’s mane and tail, it takes about two minutes! And I love the wooden body of the brush and the metal bristles! Thank you ever so much Hairy Pony!
Amazing! We loved being able to customise the tail brushes for each winner of our Cutting Horse Show. The finished result is amazing. Thank you
I had purchased a mane and tail brush. I had used it a couple of times and really liked it. It did exactly as Hairy Pony had said. I continued to use the brush and noticed some of the metal bristles had gone. I contacted Hairy Pony and explained my concern, and enquired if I had to send my brush back. Without hesitation and without sending my brush back, a new brush was on its way to me. Hairy Pony asked if I could send a photo so they could enlighten their manufacturer. It is very rare to have online purchases dealt with such efficiency, and "The Customer is Always Right" motto of successful Customer Service. Thank you
This brush was exactly what I was looking for! I absolutely adore the wood frame and the metal bristles! Hairy Pony, you did an incredible job! Thank you!
Great product
I absolutely love the Mane and Tail brush. I’m super picky and careful about my horses manes and tails. This is the only mane and tail brush I will use.
love this brush, brushed threw my horses tail so nicely without ripping all the hair out
Im really happy with the service from Hairy Pony! I had an issue with the top of my mane brush popping out/broken, so I contacted the team, and they replaced it without any hassle. I have the entire brush kit, and I absolutely love them all. The quality is fantastic, and the customer service is top-notch. Highly recommend Hairy Pony products, they are durable, effective, and the team is a pleasure to deal with!
This is the BEST brush to use on my horses mane and tail! So easy to handle the brush and I don’t feel like I’m pulling any hair out of his tail.
I’m based in the UK and have a PRE with a mane that is long and still showing signs of rough treatment (before I bought him) on the ends as it comes down to the point of his shoulder. I read about this brush on a Facebook post and hunted it down and though initially worried about ordering something from the other side of the world, I bought one together with some coat conditioner and I have never looked back! It glides through his mane and tail gently but effectively and when coupled with the 2 in one Tangle and Shine spray he no longer looks like Hagrid from the Harry Potter films :-)
I have since bought these for my other four horses and sing their praises to all who will listen. Thank you Hairy Pony.
The BEST ever mane and tail brush 🧹 we have ever used; than you so much.
Love this brush but unfortunately the bristles are falling out
Handles tangled name and tail well
Wow!! What an amazing brush. Works so well at untangling and does not pull hair out or break hair off. Highly recommend!
Such a lovely brush. Good strong handle and fine bristles make removing knots easy
Best ever and so beautiful
Just used the mane and tail brush. It is beautiful and works through tangles easily!
I love this hair brush. All my friends loved it too when we were at our county fair this summer
Love this
Lovely brushes that actually work for their intended purpose, though I am a little hesitant to buy again as one of my brushes has already cracked through the wood despite being less than six months old.'
Love our new tail bush. The quality of these brushes are so good and I highly recommend them to all my friends and family.
Wonderful Tail brush.
