Stop sacrificing your horse's crowning glory to breakage and stall debris with a solution designed for the elite competitor. The Professionals Choice Lycra Tail Braid provides the ultimate barrier against friction and dirt, ensuring a thick, show-ring-ready tail that commands attention in any discipline.

Engineered from premium, ultra-stretchy Lycra, this protector is designed to move with your horse while remaining completely "shaving-resistant." Unlike traditional wraps that trap straw and burrs, this sleek material keeps the tail pristine and hydrated, utilizing a specialized three-tube construction to prevent the individual hairs from fraying or thinning due to constant friction.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Three-Tube Construction: Features a unique three-sleeve design that separates hair into distinct protected sections, preventing strands from tangling or rubbing against each other.
• Shaving-Resistant Lycra: Crafted from high-quality, non-stick material that won't attract shavings, straw, or debris, keeping the tail clean even during overnight stabling.
• Versatile Sizing Options: Available in Medium (34"), Large (44"), and X-Large (55") lengths to accommodate different horse heights and tail volumes.
• Travel & Stall Protection: Ideal for protecting the dock and length of the tail from rubbing against trailer partitions or stall walls.
• Promotes Healthy Growth: Encasing the hair minimizes exposure to mud and moisture, helping to maintain natural oils for a smoother, more lustrous appearance.
• Secure, Easy Application: Designed for a quick and straightforward fit that stays firmly in place throughout the day without the need for abrasive fasteners.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I choose the correct size for my horse?
A: To ensure safety and hair health, follow the "Fetlock Clearance" rule. Choose a length—Medium (34"), Large (44"), or X-Large (55")—that ensures the finished braid does not hang lower than the point of the fetlock to prevent the horse from stepping on it while backing or turning.

Q: Will this material pull or dry out the tail hair?
A: Not at all. The ultra-soft Lycra is specifically chosen for its smooth texture, which helps to smooth the hair cuticle and reduce frizz. Because it doesn't absorb the hair's natural oils like cotton or fleece, it actually helps promote a shinier, healthier tail.
