How can I grow my horse's tail?
How frustrating is it when your horse rubs his tail off? But in all fairness to G, this happened whilst travelling and he is a full up 16.3 traditional warmblood type (he's a big boy) and he likes to steady himself in the box by sitting back on his bum!!
It was only a short trip, maybe a 45-minute journey and he was wearing a tail guard. He now only travels with a tail guard, bandage AND a pillow over his butt (yes, he's a prince)!
As you can see in the picture, not only did he rub his tail off, but he also rubbed a good few layers of skin off so it was raw, inflamed and sore!

Treatment plan
Twice weekly BEAUTIFY application to the entire tail.
- Day 1 - Cleanse with a mild antibacterial wash and blot dry with kitchen towel. Apply a really thin layer of COLLAGEN & KELP Repairing Body Fondant.
- Day 2 & 3 - Apply a medium layer of COLLAGEN & KELP Repairing Body Fondant.
- Day 4 - Rinse and Repeat. Cleanse with a mild antibacterial wash and blot dry with kitchen towel. Apply a medium layer of COLLAGEN & KELP Repairing Body Fondant.
- Day 5 & 6 - Apply a medium layer of COLLAGEN & KELP Repairing Body Fondant.
- Day 7 - 9 By this time, his skin was healed. It was still a little pink in places but I was desperate to start the regrowth treatment so I carefully applied COLLAGEN & KELP to the pink bits and then started using REGROW on the rest of the area.
- Day 10 - 28 All the skin was healed so I began to ramp up the hair growth using REGROW on the entire area daily.

Giovanni's results are after 4 weeks. You can see the hair is short on top still but we had a good couple of inches growth.
REGROW can be used on any part of the horse's coat, mane and tail. Please avoid the eye area and any open wounds.
