The curry is used to loosen up dirt, debris and dead hair. Use it on "meaty areas". Don't use it on the "bony" aread of head and legs.

What tools are inside a grooming kit for horses?

A typical grooming kit for everyday use should include (basic) a rubber curry comb, a stiff brush (also known as a dandy brush), a soft brush (or body brush), mane/tail combs, a hoof pick, and a metal shed blade. As an extra option you can also add treats and a face brush. You can keep it in a plastic tote. Other things you may want to have handy in a box could be fly spray, mane and tail detangler, clippers, pulling combs, and face and dock swipes. For bathing, have shampoo, mane and tail conditioner, sponges, a wash mitt, a sweat scraper, and baby wipes to help whiten some white spots. Shows obviously require show sheen, hoof dressing, and rubber bands for braids.

Is the dandy brush used on a horses face?

It's definitely not recommended-It's too big and rough for the horse's sensitive face. There are special face brushes for that purpose, which are smaller and have softer bristles. If you don't want to buy a face brush (Which aren't very expensive anyway) then you can easily use a lightly damp cloth.

What brush do you use on a horse?

A hard brush *This is a bit too general...actually depends on what part of the body you are planning on brushing. The body (excluding legs and face) is fine to use a hard (dandy) or medium brush. On the legs and face you should use a soft brush. They also have finishing brushes that can be used to brush the face if your horse needs something softer. If there is dirt or mud on your horses face or legs that a soft brush will not get rid of, use a grooming mitt or jelly curry, never use a regular curry comb on those areas (rubber curry's are reserved for the body).

How do you use a dandy brush and body brush on horses?

The Dandy brush ( also called a stiff brush) is used after the curry comb and before the softer Body brush. To use the dandy brush you should sweep it in the same direction as the hair growth using firm , short strokes with a little upward flick at the end of each stroke. It is typically best not to use the dandy on the face or any super sensitive areas as it can be too rough. The body brush (also called a soft brush) is used as a final step in the grooming. You should use longer sweeping strokes with this brush as it lays the hair and brings the oils to the surface and spreads them to add a gloss to the coat. The body brush can be used anywhere on a horses body.
