Back to the hair issue... To the hair net thing. DO you buy the hairnets sold in riding stores or the ones sold in the dollar store (or grocery store, whatever). Point being.. do you buy the flimsy ones, or the ones that are more visible?


I think it's a personal preference. When used correctly, the dollar store kind can be nearly invisible and while they don't last as long as long as the ones made specifically for riding, a lot of people I know prefer them because they tend to hold the hair a little tighter. A friend of mine shows with a big-wig hunter trainer and he makes all his riders use them because he likes the look better. I use the regular riding ones because I can make two last for a whole year if I can keep them away from velcro!

Awesome about your husband by the way, you are really lucky your SO "gets" the horse thing.
