Whether you need a fake tail depends upon several factors. First, consider where you are showing and what breed of horse you show. If you show primarily local circuits or 4-h a fake horse tail is not necessary and is more likely to look out of place and obviously false. In some larger breed shows, however, a fake tail is often common or even expected. <\/p>\n<table width=\"150\" border=\"0\" align=\"right\" cellpadding=\"2\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td>\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.luckypony.com\/store\/pc\/viewCategories.asp?idCategory=22\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.luckypony.com\/store\/pc\/catalog\/TT_FL_100.jpg\" alt=\"forelock extension\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.luckypony.com\/store\/pc\/viewCategories.asp?idCategory=22\"><font size=\"-3\">mane extensions are<br \/> now available too! <\/font><\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><p><em><b>Fake tail rules:<\/b><\/em> In Quarter Horse and Paint Horses shows, a fake horse tail is common (though not required).

Do not buy a very heavy tail if your horse already has a moderately full tail. When your tail arrives, the hairs will be of uniform length. To make your tail look it&#8217;s best, make sure your horse&#8217;s real tail has natural ends (not banged straight across) and attach the tail to your horse.
