Hair Guide
Please review this hair guide before sending in your order. I use a surprisingly little amount of hair in each piece and you do not need to send your whole tail. In order to avoid you sending too little in, I have provided a guide utilizing the width of bundles once you have placed a rubber band on your hair. If you have less than the requested amount please feel free to reach out to me, I can tell from a picture if you will have enough.
Do Not Ship Hair Wet! I will no longer work with hair that has been shipped wet or damp. Enclosing wet hair can develop mold and I will not work with it due to health risks.
Please pay attention to the type of hair able to be used in each piece and length required, this will avoid frustration when I have to ask you for more or a different type of hair. It is very important that the majority of the bundle you send is the requested length, not just a few end pieces.
If sending in multiple horses, you can send smaller bundles, but please still pay attention to the length.
**Because of the order volume I currently have, I am only able to wash the hair that I will need for your piece. Please avoid sending very thick tails or multiple bundles from the same horse. Everything you send will be returned to you.

I do accept donations of tail hair to be used in research projects. I am particularly interested in rich browns, whites, and mixed colors. If you have any tails you would like to donate, please ship them to me with a note saying you'd like to donate them. Thank you!
