Best Age Range

Best suited to riders aged roughly 5 to 12, or any junior groom who finds an adult body brush too wide to handle comfortably. The smaller footprint also makes it useful for adults grooming miniatures, ponies and foals.

How to Use a Body Brush

The body brush is used after the curry comb and dandy brush to give the coat its final smooth finish. Brush in the direction of hair growth using long, sweeping strokes, flicking the brush away at the end of each stroke to release dust. The soft bristles are gentle enough to use on the face and legs too.

Care & Cleaning

Rinse the bristles in clean water after each grooming session to clear out hair and grease, then let the brush dry bristles-down so water doesn't sit in the back. Keeping one brush per horse in a busy yard helps reduce the spread of skin conditions.

Build a Complete Junior Grooming Kit

Pair this body brush with a child-sized curry comb and dandy brush for a complete grooming set. Teaching kids the full grooming sequence — curry comb, dandy brush, body brush — builds real skill and a deeper bond with their horse. A junior kit also makes a great gift for the rider in their first season at a yard.
