This allows the hair to lay flat against your horse's dock, making it much easier to achieve a seamless, professional braid that looks completely natural — no lumps, no gaps, no giveaways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Why choose a 1 lb extension over a lighter weight?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1 lb weight is specifically designed for Warmbloods or horses with naturally thick tails that need substantial volume to look balanced in the ring. If your horse has a finer tail or smaller frame, a lighter extension may be a better match — but for larger horses, this weight provides the proportional fullness judges reward.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Professional's Choice","offers":[{"title":"BLACK","offer_id":47563555832029,"sku":"T6 HTR BLK","price":352.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DARK SORREL","offer_id":47563555864797,"sku":"T6 HTR DKSOR","price":367.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"LIGHT SORREL","offer_id":47563555897565,"sku":"T6 HTR LTSOR","price":367.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"MEDIUM SORREL","offer_id":47563555930333,"sku":"T6 HTR MEDSOR","price":367.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"MIXED SORREL","offer_id":47563555963101,"sku":"T6 HTR MXD","price":367.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/professional-s-choice-hunter-tail-extension-1-lb-natural-horse-hair-for-the-show-ring-t6-htr-blk.webp?v=1773274206","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/1-lb-hunter-ext","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
