omg THANK YOU for saying this. I'm not 100% against pulling but when people deny that it's painful i just ...

You shouldn't have to think you're a snowflake for wanting to prioritize your horse's comfort and going the extra mile to put her at ease! I think it gives you major brownie points as a horse owner and rider. Helpful tips, thank you!!

ok, lowkey stalking your channel now, but I tried your method on my moody red mare who HATES having her mane pulled. She was still for almost 30 minutes before she finally had enough lol. I had never heard of doing it after riding, and that helped a ton.

Our one horse has a thin mane already but this is very usefull. I love how you care how ur horse feels and want to make it less painfull for her.

A thousand times YES to this technique! It's literally a life changer. I just recently learned about this release-method for mane pulling and it just couldn't believe how it easy it was and that my horse went from totally panicking whenever I'd pull his mane to seeming to actually like it! The one thing I wonder about it why this method isn't standard since it's so much more humane and less stressful for everyone involved. It takes LESS time actually to do it this way because the horse cooperates and stands still for you so no time is spent fighting with him!

The best thing is waking up with a notification on your screen from Jill 💗💗 Loved this video! I hope school is going well for you 😊

CONGRATS ON 22k Jill! and Zobird!! 💗💗💗

Jill if you were my instructor I would cry! I feel like you have such an amazing understanding of horses not many people have. I love my trainer and all but I feel like you would be amazing!

And Jill does it again! Amazing video ❤❤

OMG Jill. I can't thank you enough for sharing this. I've never been able to pull either of my horses manes & have always used a blade, but I tried this method today & managed to do both of them without any objections from either. I had to go very slow but it's so worth taking the time with this method. Thank you so much. From Amanda & two very smart & happy horses 🐴🐴❤️👍😘

Thank you sooooooooooo much for saying this, my trainer's volunteer once told me that they couldn't feel it, therefore she would rip her horses hair out. You're so knowledgeable and I thank you for that!

This helps so much, I absolutely love your channel/videos so much 😍👏🏻

Omg I didn't even know that pulling horses manes out was a thing!!!??😂 is it just to thin it out? Or is there another reason? (Edit) oh right nevermind... that's why you watch the whole video before you comment😂😂🤦🏼‍♀️

I love how videos like this come out when I need them? Does that happen to anyone else lol?!? This will be very helpful for my thoroughbred with a long thick mane that stopped sweating. I love how you know what upsets Zoe and that you find something that works for her.

Thankyou for doing this video I was wondering how to pull manes. Love your videos! ♡🐎

Yay!!!! Another video! I absolutely love your channel! You and so and the cutest!

Hey Jill!! I've just started watching your videos, and I'm so impressed. You give such good advice and share really good knowledge...but you're humble enough to step away from giving advice that you aren't so sure about. I've learned so much just watching these types of videos! Thanks for your great work (and you have the cutest personality) :D

oh my goodness your hair is gorgeous 🤩🤩

At the barn I use to ride at they would tell me pulling a horses mane doesn't hurt. But I have watched horses throw their heads and other thing when they would pull the horses mane. Once it got so bad a horse ran out of her crossties. Nice to see a gentler way at pulling a horse's mane.

Thank you for this!! Works wonders and my horse was Super relaxed through the process.

Great advice. Never liked the quick pull method. I like to be kind to my horses. Thanks alot for taking the time to do this video. Cheers from Australia

Always wondered why people pulled manes (I’m a pleasure rider). Thanks for being so respectful of Zoe.

i am doing lessons and this video is really helpful

I'm glad the horses manes I've pulled have not cared. In fact the gelding I did was falling asleep. He's such a funny dude.

Goof for you at being so sensitive and empathetic with your horse. Makes for a great partnership.

Thank you for posting this. I definitely will be trying this next time I pull manes

Thank you! I have a mare who doesn't like it as well so certainly game to try this.

Great video. This is something I have to do with my Maus, something I've always contracted to someone else. This makes the task less much daunting.

I always wanted to learn how to do this! Thank you :)

just now found this video, I was wondering if there's any kind of mane pulling or trimming that should be done to the forelock or does it just get left alone? Thank you :)

Awesome video! Love it x

Awesome video as always :)

Being a kind owner is not being a snowflake,plain and simple it’s just kindness and kindness isn’t weakness it is strength in a world where kindness needed😊

MIND BLOWN

Thankyou so much for this video!! the sensitive horse struggle is real 😭😂 I find that another trick for pulling a sensitive horses mane is to not back comb it; my horse is border-line dangerous when I pull his mane haha, I tend to not pull it but I do need to plait it every now and again and his mane grows very thick, long and fast! so what I like to do is brush it out and (without using a comb) just start to pull out a few hairs at a time without back brushing. I will do about 1/5 of his mane each week and then trim it.

Ok so I never pull my horses' mane coz I just like the way it looks better when it's cut BUT I just tried this technique when doing my own eyebrows and omg thank you it makes life so much easier!!!

I'd never ever seen this method before (and I'm actually honestly surprised it works), so it was great to watch. Regarding twitches, I'd definitely urge you not to shy away from them, as they're a very useful tool. They aren't meant to be painful, so much as to distract: think of it like how you squeeze your (or someone elses) hand when getting a tattoo/piercing, or how doctors/vets will pinch/rub the area around the injection site before inserting the needle. :)

My dude isn't really as sensitive as zo sounds but there is a comb called the solorake and it helps shorten an pulling time!! It is supposed to work like a comb that grabs any broken, damaged, or weak mane that virtually thins the mane. I do it before I pull and it really has shortens the pulling session and my guy seems happier because of it! Definitely going to use this method of pulling now too 😁

I love this!!😍❤️💕

This helped so much! Thank you!

Hahaha “are those the words, I don’t know” you’re lovely and weird

When it releases do you get down to the root where you see the white end? I think this looks much better than pulling, because horses do feel it. It may not be the nerve but the yanking sensation.

Awesome video like always also love you and ur so pretty

Thank you this was great! I'm going to try it on my horse. She hates having her mane pulled

If you can/haven't already, can you do a video on how to clip a horse's tail? I love the way you've done Zoe's! It looks so good!

Omg I had no idea the hair just pops out if you add pressure and wait , the first time I actually pulled a horses mane was at a pony camp and the little pony looked so sad when you yanked , but when I tried with a different pony she was ok with me pulling it the way I've been told , this method seems much easier

Great video

Hey Jill! Sorry, it's me again, but as we approach my lesson I'm starting to get nervous and doubt myself, but I think with these comments I will be a little bit better? So sorry to throw more at you ;-; 1: Tips on two point? Sometimes I struggle when I go into two-point, and I lose some of my rein, and It's harder for me to get up on smaller jumps. 2: How do you tell when your horse ends a stride, and starts one in the canter when on your trusty steed. Last week we worked on canter strides, and since I was on a different horse, I was unable to jump, but I didn't know how to tell when a stride ends and starts. Thank you for being the best horse youtuber ever.

How do you do a mowhak mane style? I really want my horse to look like its an Equus!

I LOVE YOU

My horse has a long mane and it's pretty thin, I am planning on cutting it this show season for the first time... Since he has a thin mane, should I still pull it? Or just cut it acrossed? Idk much confusion and stressing I dOnT WaNt tO MeSs uP

I found this magic tool for pulling my horses mane cause he used to try bite and pull away it’s like this little safety blade that thins and “pulls” the mane.

Hey Jill! Do you have an tips on jump refusing on higher jumps? Thanks

I always keep my horses mane pulled and trimmed, unless I turn him away for a certain amount of time (like over winter). It's certainly a learning curve😂

a while ago i was riding bareback and the trainer told me to hold the mane while falling and that its numb and i did a little research cuz i couldnt believe it and yeah they do feel it at least some of it so...still i dont think its better then ripping their hair but that way of clipping looks nice i hope u get what i mean like..

I love that you care so much about Zoe's well being (more like well "bean") hahaha loved the vid

How do you get zo's mane to be so short and fluffy on her neck and what's it called Sorry if I sound stupid

You and your horse are so gorgeous.😍🐴

I love that you made that video!! My mare won't let me at all pull it. She jerks her head and mane away , she has brpke cross ties just over 1 tiny strand pulled out. I have to cut it, use thining scissors.. it takes me over an hour😭

Do you have to ride before for it to pop out so easily?

I do it the same way! That's how I was taught by my trainer!

Im not sure if it was mentioned but you should pull mane AFTER a workout, the reason is the pores are open after a work and the mane pulls out effortlessly. just a tip. 😊

Completely not horse related but I love your hair! 😍😍

They make mane pullers that you just back comb and then press down a button and it cuts it so no pulling is involved. We have had no issues with it being uneven or hard to braid!

Anyone else notice when the twitch came out she started showing calming signs one after another?

I don't pull my horses mane but if I did I would definitely use this method. He is very sensitive and sometimes it hurts him even when I just brush his mane so I have to be very gentle! When I first got him I had to be gentle when brushing his whole body because of his sensitivity!

Ahhh so helpful thankyou!!

My mare is so sensitive that she doesn't even let me brush her mane if it's tuggy so I will definitely try this out and hopefully she lets me actually pull it for a change as I hate cutting it with scissors

The SoloComb works wonders for sensitive horses as well. My horse HATES having his name pulled and used to make it a real chore.

Yay my horses mane was super sensitive when i first got him and horses mane was in a terrible condition so i had to hogg it until it was better quality and not terrible

i needed this oh my god😂

Is zoë sensitive to everything like do u have to kick her to canter her or do u just squeeze

Hi! My mum said if I pay for 100% of it, I am allowed to get a horse. By the time I have got the money it will be probs start of 2019. Does anyone have advice on what I need for a horse? And beginner advice etc.? Because Im broke so probs wont be able to have a saddle for a while so will use a bareback pad... are they safe/good? (also anything I can forgoe to save money and buy at a later date?? And some basic feed information? ) BTW I am almost 15 and will be going into yr 12 when i get the horse *Ive literally copy &pasted this into like 500 other videos lol SOME ONE PLS HALP

why does it hurt her and not other horses?

I new to the whole english riding and are you supposed to post at the trot and the lope or just the trot? plz help me

So interesting!

tysm for this video!!!! my horse hates when i pull his mane !!

And how short should I cut it?

"sensitive horse version" yes, that is my gelding. 😂

Are you still working with your project horse

When you do cross country do you canter or gallop? I know a lot of people gallop but a lot of people canter to.

Just curious why don't you use thinning combs?

Did you announce who won the giveaway?

this is gonna sound dumb but I figured you would explain I don't understand why people pull manes how come you cant trim them?

5:31 you look so cute omg!!

that's wild

The huMANE way. Hahahaha😀😀😀

Tbh I can’t tell if this is better or worse than normally yanking. Cuz you wouldn’t want to just slowly pull your hair out, I dunno, I just don’t agree with either method lol

I just cut my mare her mane 🤷🏼‍♀️easy and fast haha. Her mane aren’t super thick so that helps, if I’d pull that she wouldn’t have anything left haha

..they've always taught us that horses don't feel this b'cuz their skin is so thick?..w/ a thicker mane..how can we make sure it doesnt stick up when we don't need braids..good Zoe😍

How often do you pull her mane?

0:38 the worlds cutest yoan

ok not trying to be rude but why dont people just cut the mane at an angle to make it look like its pulled? If someone does it to make a mane look more thin why dont they just buzz off the bottom layer where they want it more thin? (sorry im not an English rider and haven't been around English riders so I dont know this stuff)

❤️🐴❤️

How often do you pull her main xx

Wouldn't that hurt like pulling out there hair

Your stunning , just being honest :)

..oh..and our school NEVer told us difference of riding b4..this is smart...😎

😀

Wow! Seriously!?! My mare HATES having her mane pulled and it's insanely thick so I normally cut with scissors ✂️ and use thinning scissors to thin it out. Not ideal. I like this idea!
