Book Synopsis Braiding Manes and Tails by : Charni Lewis

Download or read book Braiding Manes and Tails written by Charni Lewis and published by Storey Publishing. This book was released on 2008-02-20 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse trainer and instructor Charni Lewis brings the wonderful process of braiding to life in herÊstep-by-step guide to 30 beautiful braids. Full-color photographs and detailed illustrations clearly show the 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. 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!
