Smooth. Control. Plait.
The Hairy Pony Taming Wax is a strong-hold horse plaiting wax designed to tame flyaways, smooth fluffy manes and give you greater control while creating neat, polished plaits and rosettes.
The easy-to-use twist-up applicator allows you to apply the wax directly to the mane exactly where you need it, helping keep sections smooth and manageable without leaving a sticky mess all over your hands.
Formulated with Beeswax and Vitamin E, Taming Wax provides long-lasting hold and a smooth, sleek finish while helping minimise unnecessary pulling and damage during styling.
Best of all, it's water soluble, making it easy to wash out once competition day is over.
Designed For
Neater plaits, smoother sections and better control of flyaways.
Use Taming Wax while sectioning and plaiting to help keep shorter hairs and fluffy sections under control, making it easier to create clean, defined braids, bands and rosettes.
Perfect for competition preparation or whenever you want a beautifully polished mane.
Why Taming Wax?
STRONG HOLD
Helps keep flyaways and fluffy hair under control while you work.
DIRECT APPLICATION
The twist-up design lets you apply wax exactly where it's needed without coating your hands.
SMOOTHER PLAITING
Helps keep each section together for greater control while braiding and rolling rosettes.
EASY TO REMOVE
The water-soluble formula washes out easily after use.
How To Use
Twist the Taming Wax up slightly and apply directly through the section of mane you're preparing to plait.
Apply generously where needed, then comb through to distribute the product and smooth flyaways before braiding.
Continue section by section as you work along the mane.
For an extra-polished finish, lightly apply over any remaining flyaways once your plaits or rosettes are complete.
Key Ingredients
Beeswax
Provides grip and hold to help keep the mane controlled during plaiting.

Included in the formula to help condition the hair during styling.
Complete Your Plaiting Kit
Taming Wax is also included in our Horse Plaiting Kit, bringing together our essential plaiting tools and products in one complete competition-ready kit.
From sectioning and smoothing to stitching and finishing, it's everything you need to create neat, polished plaits from start to finish.
Storage
Store below 30°C and away from direct sunlight.
As Taming Wax contains beeswax, exposure to extreme heat may cause the product to soften or melt. If this occurs, move the tube to a cooler environment and allow it to return to room temperature. The wax will naturally re-solidify inside the tube.

FAQ
Should I use the Plaiting Taming Wax or Braiding Mousse?
We recommend starting with our Taming Wax to smooth down any stray hairs and then going in with our Braiding Mousse to add tact & grip before braiding. Together the products will provide a sleek & shiny finish to your horse's braids.
What’s the best way to get this out of my horse’s mane?
To remove our Taming Wax from your horse’s mane, simply sponge the area with some warm water until it softens, and gently brush it out.

If you want professional looking plaits that will last the day you must have this taming wax in your kit
I used it for the first time at the show and it worked too well! I look forward to using it at many more shows to come! only thing I didn't like about it was how hard it was to get the way out of the mane after the show! but overall great product and I recommend it!
I’ve been using the Taming Wax for the past three years on all my ponies, and I can't imagine plaiting without it.
It’s been an absolute game changer for my pony Louie who’s mane seems to have a mind of its own
but the wax keeps everything smooth and in place effortlessly even overnight!
Would absolutely recommend this🙌
worked great as my minis mane was short and sticking out sideways, kept it down for a full day of showing
This is the only controlling product I use. I have used it very short thin manes to really long thick mane & it works every time! As its all natural the bonus of not having to wash it out if you have not got enough time is just the best. Especially in winter! Even at the end of the comp plaits still look 100%... Wont use anything else :)
This is amazing! Can not recommend enough! This wax has converted me into a taming wax lover!!
Exceptional quality…. Beautifully packaged
This is the best product I have found for plaits that stay in and look good, even overnight!
Key to tight braids
This is now a must-have for plaiting up! It tames those little flyaways and makes it so easy to plait! It works perfectly every time and actually makes my braids look nice and clean! Thank you so much, I will definitely be repurchasing!
Excellent on keeping braids looking clean and professional
I will never go without this again! It gives great grip, and gets all the little hairs. And, smells amazing!
I have been braiding for years and this really works. Makes my braids even better.
Love this taming wax works perfectly ever time
Ensures all hairs go where you want them.
Great produce for they fly aways.
I’ve used wax before and it wasn’t a great success with it attracting dirt and dandruff. But this one is great the mane it conditioned as well. Great product and easy to use.
Really good and smells lovely too.
Perfect for the horses mane & tail, highly recommend it, bought this for my daughter & she loves it! Makes it easier to do, will definitely be buying more when she needs it
I have been using the wax for some time now and it is awesome.. love it
Works so well. Definitely tidies away all those fly away and the hold is great.
I could not live without HP Taming Wax- it’s an absolute lifesaver when plaiting up.
I love this product, it makes my plaits beautiful, no fly aways. I was devastated when it melted in the car.
Love the plaiting wax! Keeps the braids looking slick and tidy without having to wash the mane after the very use! No residue left just leaves the mane soft and silky.
Love it!
Does a fabulous job getting a perfect finish __
Large size, easy to apply and leaves the mane without residue'
