Halter/Showmanship Classes

So tomorrow I shall be entering Tbird into our first halter/showmanship class. I have NO idea what I have to do grooming wise. My friend asked if I wanted to enter so I said sure. Well now look what I got myself into haha.

What I DO know: He is going to have a bath, his bridle path is going to be trimmed (as it is a mohawk right now), he is going to have showsheen in his mane and tail and on his butt(none where the saddle goes I've seen people do that it's hilarious when they can't figure out why their saddle is slipping) He's gonna be all pretty and groomed to the nines(yup waking up at 430 in the morning for this). Our colors are going to be hunter green and black(he's brown and he looks great in camo so I immediately thought of hunter green as our colors...also I have brown hair also good with green) I am going to be wearing a hunter green show shirt, black boots, black belt, jeans, a black bun net, and a black western hat. He will have a hunter green saddle blanket. and the saddle and bridle match.

What do I do with his mane and tail? Do I have to braid it? Do I have to wear makeup I heard a lot of the girls do?

Mind you this isn't a BIG show it's a 4h open show but they're really serious when it comes to this stuff.

Any advice would be awesome this is my first time branching out! haha I'm excited.

Here are some pics of T so you can get some ideas(Note-he's lost weight since these pics(they were taken in November) and gained muscle so now he looks pretty smexxy ~hehe~) im gonna find a vid or pic to show him now.
