I honestly don't see a lot of difference between horse conditioners. Some may smell better than others, or have exotic ingredients, but for good conditioning at a reasonable price it's hard to beat this old favorite.

Pros: Cheap, effective, found everywhere

Cons: Daughter always uses it up

This stuff is great! I would reccomend getting the whole package, it works miracles. It removes stains, even from some of our barn's light gray horses.
The horses also seem to feel good after we use it. Thanks!

Pros: Makes coat shiny and soft, gets rid of stains

Cons: wears off after a while

I've had show judges comment on how soft and shiney my horses are. I only use this on manes and tails, after their shampoo--some does end up on the rest of their bodies in the rinsing, but that's okay.

Pros: Leaves hair extra soft and manageable

Cons: Can make the body a little slick for riding

This is great for putting in my horses manes and tails and leaving it in. There are burrs all over our pasture and no matter how many I pull out of the ground my horses seem to find more. It makes it so easy to pull them out. I love the shine and manage-ablility it also gives to the manes and tails.

Pros: gets burrs out and gives manes and tails shine

Cons: no cons

This may sound crazy, but I use this on my hair sometimes. My hair stylist recommended it b/c I have very long hair. It's super cheap and makes my hair very soft. I have also used it on my dog and her hair, which is wired, also came out very soft- I was super impressed.

Pros: Easy to find, use, and cheap

Cons: none
