As I continue discovering the world of equestrianism, I learned that braiding is compulsory for equestrian shows. This gives the judges the impression of a clean and tidy horse. And actually plaits must stay tight and in place all day when you have a show. Interesting.
So, today I watched some videos about braiding manes. These ladies do it so beautifully:

Going to bed now! See you tomorrow!
