If you're like us you're probably always looking for a way to not only make braiding manes easier but also look better. We thought we'd found that way with a product called Quick Knots. The idea is cool, and it's definitely quicker to get the braids done. It took about ten minutes to do. However, we found that they worked decently in a short, thin mane but not in a thicker mane. Yes we ordered both sizes to try and use the correct ones on each horse. The one's in the thicker mane didn't nearly as well as those in the thinner mane. We also felt that they wouldn't hold if you were to braid with them the night before. Are they convenient? Absolutely. Would they work for a photoshoot? Sure if you did them just before the shoot. Do they hold for the movement of riding? They held through schooling and showing, but they were coming loose by the end on our horse with the thicker mane. If they don't have to be in for extended periods of time and can be done just before showing or a photoshoot you should be good to go.
