I cut my horse's mane today for a show next Saturday. I keep messing up such as it bwing un even and things like that. Does anyone have any suggestions or helpful tips to help me. I should have never cut her mane bacuse it was so pretty but you learn from mistakes. I will try to get some pictures up of how it looks since I cut it. Thanks for all ya'lls help!

Well, you could maybe:

*Pull it
*Trim up the ends with a scissor
*Ask your mom to help

That's about all I can think of right now... sorry!

I found this rather helpful step by step guide to pulling a mane right:

Hope this helps somehow. (:
Getting someone to come help will make it alot easier for you. Agreed, we all learn from mistakes!
