There are different degrees of shortness when it comes to a horse's mane. For Western Pleasure and Hunt Seat classes the mane is 'pulled' to about 3-4 inches. It shows the horse's neck better in competition.

When the horse's mane has been shaved off it's called 'roach or roaching'. This used to be the norm for roping horses so their manes didn't get caught as the rider threw the lasso.

And of course different breeds have their own styles and how they like their horses to look.

when you clip the mane close to the horses neck it is called a hogged mane, so if you were cutting the mane off, then you would say you were hogging his mane.
