Mane And Tail Shampoo, to get to the point very quickly, is a shampoo designed to give horses great looking, healthy, shiny manes and tails. What separates this from most products you'd expect to get from your local pet, animal or vet supplies, however, is that Mane And Tail Shampoo is also now a mainstream product in use by human beings across the globe! In this article I'll be looking at how this situation came into being, and why it may not be such a crazy idea to share cleaning products, or at least this cleaning product, with our equine friends.
Horse shampoos are created and formulated to make the horse look as healthy as possible. This is achieved by giving a voluminous, shiny mane, with strong hair free from tangles and knots. Early on, human owners latched onto the fact that this is not entirely dissimilar to what they were looking for out of their own shampoo. Combined with the fact that the horse equivalent came in several times cheaper per unit volume, it would have been crazy not to give it a go. The results speak for themselves. Mane And Tail Shampoo re-branded their shampoo for the human market, and it is now used and enjoyed by thousands of people in cities all over the world, including some big name celebrities here in the US like Jenifer Anniston.
Horse shampoos have been shown to be particularly effective on curly hair and wiry hair - presumably because this type of hair is closest to horses hair, for which the product is designed. Mane And Tail Shampoo is packed full of emollients (which soften the skin) and moisturizers, as well as a protein rich formula - all of these ensure that the scalp is protected and nourished as well as the hair itself.
The other huge advantage of horse shampoos is that they are great for anyone who has a problem with the scent-enhancing additives found in most human shampoos. These can cause irritation and itching for those with sensitive skin. Mane And Tail Shampoo contains none of these artificial additives, making it ideal for people with skin allergies.
It is for these reasons that horse shampoos are gaining popularity with humans, and will continue to do so.
