This is a discussion on mane on the left or right - which is 'proper'? within the Horse Grooming forums, part of the Keeping and Caring for Horses category
There was a thread on this once but I can't find it. What is the 'proper' side for the mane to be on? I always thought it was the right but I've seen a lot with it on the left and my new horses is on the left as well. So yeah, which is 'right'?
On the right but I guess it might change between countries, like the side of the road
Then again, a handful of top showing people plait on the left mainly on the right though
If you roach it you won't have to worry about it (only kidding but Dumas would love it).
It used to be considered proper form to have it on the right but today it doesn't matter. I would simply work with it in the way it falls naturally. I have one that falls to the right, one that falls to the left, and a pony that splits down the middle :roll:
