Braiding Manes & Tails: A Visual Guide to 30 Basic Braids
by: Lewis, Charni
Horse trainer and instructor Charni Lewis brings the wonderful process
of braiding to life in her clearly described, step-by-step guide to 30
beautiful braids. Helping the braider along are full-color photographs
and detailed illustrations showing twists and turns that make each style
unique and the hand positions necessary to hold those ropes of equine
hair in place. To keep hands free for braiding, the book has a nail hole
at the top of each page for easy hanging on a post or barn wall. Lewis
begins with detailed advice on choosing and using appropriate tools, preparing
the horse, and creating a safe area in which to work. After a chapter
on no-nonsense maintenance braids (used primarily to keep the horse neat
and clean), she progresses through all the classic braids required for
each riding discipline from a Diamond dressage braid to the Three-ribbon
style favored for gaited show horses. Finally, Lewis lets loose with braids
that are simply fun to do. She encourages readers to experiment with a
Scalloped Hunter mane braid or a Fourstrand Weave for the tail. They look
gorgeous, and when the novelty wears off, there are many more to try!
