Choose Your Mane & Tail Protection

A quick guide to mane and tail protection — the types and how to use them — so you can keep your horse's hair healthy and long.

Mane Bags

Wrap and protect the mane to reduce breakage, tangling and rubbing, helping hair grow longer and healthier. Our set of six lets you section the mane for even protection.

Tail Bags

Enclose the tail to shield it from dirt, breakage and UV fading. Several designs, including our Ranch Hand and Horse Lives Matter styles.

Lycra Tail Bags

Premium stretchable, breathable fabric that hugs the tail securely without pulling — a comfortable, snug everyday option.

Why Use Mane & Tail Bags

Manes and tails take a beating from dirt, sun, rubbing and wear, leading to breakage and thinning. Bagging the hair protects it so it can grow longer and stay fuller — one of the simplest, most effective protection tools, especially for show horses.

How to Fit & Use Them

Start with clean, dry, detangled hair. For tail bags, braid or fold the tail and enclose it, securing above the tailbone without wrapping too tightly. For mane bags, section the mane and bag each part evenly. Never fasten so tight it restricts circulation.

Care & Materials

These are protective care products made from durable, washable fabrics — including stretchable Lycra on our premium tail bags — rather than leather tack. Wash as needed and let them dry fully before reusing.
