Horse brushes are some of the most important items in your horse grooming kit. Brushing a horse is a great way to spend some extra time with your equine friend while looking after its comfort and appearance. I like to think that brushing my horse is as relaxing for me as it is for him, but that’s because I tend to use high-quality products designed specifically for the task.<\/p>\n
Some horse owners just groom their horses using conventional brushes they find lying around, and as long as they’re not too rough, they can get the job done to some extent. However, if you want your horse’s coat to look its best, you’re far better off going for a brush that was designed specifically for horses. Things like the material of the brush, its bristle density, and even the overall size of the brush can make a huge difference when it comes to achieving a great result.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, a horse brush can save you quite a bit of time if you’re in a hurry, as it will always be much more efficient at removing dirt from your horse’s coat when compared to a regular one. The best horse brushes are not even that expensive, and you can use them for months or even a few years without having to replace them.<\/p>\n
It’s worth noting that some of these brushes were designed specifically for the tail and mane, while others can be used for the coat in general. You can also use curry combs, sweat scrapers, and grooming gloves for a complete and thorough grooming process.
\nBelow you will find some of the best horse brushes available right now. If you’ll keep on reading, you’ll surely find one that suits you and your horse’s needs.<\/p>\n

Advertised as the world’s first patented de-shedding tool for pets, SleekEZ is actually a very promising product that could very well replace a conventional horse brush. It comes in different sizes for different pets, so obviously I’d suggest going for the Large 10-inch variant if you’re about to use it on a horse.<\/p>\n
The grooming tool features a uniquely designed Wave Pattern Blade that brushes away loose hair and dirt without snagging or damaging the horse’s skin. As you groom, the loose hair and dirt will gather along the blade and will eventually fall off on the ground.
\nThe product is created in the United States, and it features an oval design as well as a premium-grade poplar wood build. As for the blade, it was put together from high-quality stainless steel.<\/p>\n
While I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it as a replacement for a regular brush, you should definitely add this tool to your horse grooming kit. According to some of the reviews I’ve seen, it really does work very well.<\/p>\n

Simple in design yet incredibly efficient, the reversible stainless steel curry comb by Both Winners is widely appreciated by horse owners from all over the world. Ideal for cleaning the horse’s body of any loose hair and grease, the comb also works very well as a regular brush.<\/p>\n
The teeth are strong enough to last for ages, and the ergonomically designed handle adapts to your hand for a perfect grip. The comb is also reversible, which means that you can use one side for softer brushing and another for more heavy-duty work such as removing tough hair and mud.<\/p>\n
There are four colorways available for this curry comb, namely blue, purple, green, and red.<\/p>\n

Just as its name implies, the Oster ECS Stiff grooming brush was created to remove dirt from your horse’s coat with minimum effort on your part. It has densely packed coarse bristles that are ideal for removing dried up dirt from the coat. However, in order to obtain a nice shine and a smooth finish, you should probably follow up with a softer brush.<\/p>\n
The Oster ECS fits nicely in your hand and offers a secure grip. According to the manufacturer, the handle has an innovative design that will fit hands of all sizes. Available colorways include blue or pink. More color choices would have been nice, but you won’t be disappointed performance-wise, at least.<\/p>\n

This horse brush by J.T. International is a cheap and readily available solution to your horse-caring needs. It’s a simple brush with a simple design, but it does a great job of keeping your horse clean and healthy. You can use it to groom the coat on a regular basis in order to remove dust and achieve a nice shine.<\/p>\n
The brush does not cause any harm to the horse thanks to its medium bristles, but keep in mind that this is a horse body brush, not a face brush. For the face area, I’d recommend something a bit softer still.<\/p>\n
Other highlights of this horse brush include a wooden handle and a hand strap, both of which will improve your own comfort while brushing. There is only a single available colorway from what I can see, namely a light and dark brown combo.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This offering by Tough-1 is actually a soft velvety horse brush that can be used as a finisher or as a dedicated face brush. It comes with a premium wooden handle and with 1 1\/2″ deep horsehair bristles that do a fine job at removing dust particles from the horse’s coat.<\/p>\n
It’s a great brush for horses that react poorly to grooming. Don’t expect it to remove old dirt caught up in the coat, as the bristles are just too soft for this. For a medium brush or a finishing touch, however, you’ll find that it gets the job done nicely. Actually, this is one of the best horse brushes I’ve used in a long time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Horze hair dust brush is a great grooming accessory if you’re looking for something to help you remove fine dust particles from your horse’s coat. It’s mainly a flick brush, which means that you’ll need to use it in a flicking motion for maximum effect.<\/p>\n
The results are impressive, though – the coat is shinier and healthier looking once you’re done with it. Obviously, you’ll need a rougher brush to clean up the dirt from the coat first, and you can use the Horze afterward for a finishing touch.<\/p>\n
One thing to note is that the brush will shed a bit as you take it out of the box, but it will perform admirably once those extra hairs are out. The handle is wooden, which I’ve always liked, and the bristles are long and soft – perfect for flicking out dust.<\/p>\n
