WHY IS SILICONE FREE SO IMPORTANT?
Silicones are hydrophobic which means they repel water. When it does this in hair, the very precious moisture content of just 3% is reduced and the protein bonds that make up 97% of hair become less stable and more liable to break. In a nutshell, those old-school mane, tail and coat sprays that we have all used since pony camp simply coat your horse in silicones which yes, does make them look shiny, and yes, it does detangle their hair BUT this is short-lived and it’s actually damaging your horse’s mane, tail & coat!! Dry, fragile and weak hair leads to breakages, rubs, bald patches, and even the loss of manes & tails completely! Just say NO ... and get NAKED!
HOW LONG WILL THIS SET LAST ME?
Obviously, it depends on usage. However, on average if we allocate one set per horse, we would expect the set to last approximately 8 weeks. You may run out of STAY PERFECT a little quicker if you're using it daily as recommended.
WILL IT PREVENT MY HORSE FROM GETTING RUG RUBS ON HIS/HER MANE AND TAIL?
YES! Healthy, strong hair does not break and rub away! We have created this problem for our horses, not by choosing to put rugs on them, but by choosing to use harsh, drying products on them such as silicone sprays. These have made their hair strands so brittle and weak that unfortunately, rug rubs are so common. But there’s no need to fear as this damage can be reversed.
WILL BEAUTIFY OIL HELP MY HORSE TO RE-GROW HIS MANE AND TAIL?
YES. BEAUTIFY OIL contains very carefully selected oils to feed the hair follicles and encourage maximum hair growth.
MY HORSE HAS SENSITIVE SKIN WHICH LEADS TO BALD PATCHES FROM MY BOOTS AND TACK. WILL THIS HELP HIM?
YES. First of all, BEAUTIFY OIL is dermatology tested so we know it won’t irritate his sensitive skin. It will help to hydrate the skin and coat which will instantly soothe the skin and start the healing process. Hydrated, healthy skin is much less reactive. We’d recommend that you use BEAUTIFY OIL as your daily hot cloth, STAY PERFECT Body Spray daily and also have COLLAGEN & KELP Repairing Body Fondant on hand for if his skin ever starts to crack.
DOES THIS HELP WITH SWEET ITCH SYMPTOMS?
Yes, COLLAGEN & KELP helps to combat Sweet Inch in 3 ways:
- Soothes the itchy, inflamed skin which will instantly make the horse less likely to rub it further worsening the skin.
- Its Anti-Bacterial & Anti-Microbial properties work to destroy any bacteria.
- The micro-encapsulated Collagen starts the healing process.
We would also recommend using STAY PERFECT Body Spray daily to help to keep the horrid bugs away from your horse.
CAN I USE THIS ON ALL MINOR WOUNDS?
We certainly do, and it's a must-have for all of our client's grooming bags!
Obviously, you will need to use your own judgement on whether your horse is in need of veterinary attention but for most minor wounds and abrasions, COLLAGEN & KELP will help to speed up the healing process, prevent scarring, protect from environmental aggressors and bacteria whilst hydrating the skin making it as comfortable as possible for your horse.
