Mane N Tail is made by Straight Arrow and has been around for a long time. It was created at the Katzev horse farm in New Jersey. Initially, Mane N Tail shampoos and conditioners were targeted at show horses to keep their manes and tails looking show-ready, but the products also work on human hair. In addition to the original shampoo and conditioner, Straight Arrow also makes Mane N Tail styling creams, leave-in hair treatments, and hand-and-nail cream.
How It Works
Mane and Tail hair growth works when the person uses the shampoo and conditioner regularly. This nourishes and conditions the hair and scalp. By cleaning and treating deep down to the scalp — where new hair grows — the products both promote and maintain healthy hair growth. Mane and Tail hair growth products work on all kinds of hair, including color-treated, relaxed, and permed hair.
The formulas in Mane and Tail hair growth shampoo, $5 for 12 oz, contain a blend of protein-enriched formulas for hair durability and softness and are fortified with moisturizers and emollients that improve hair shine and manageability with each wash. Mane and Tail hair growth conditioner, $5 for 12 oz, are enriched with natural oils that condition and nourish while also moisturizing hair that might be dry or damaged. The end result is hair that is soft, manageable, and longer and stronger over time.
