- Length-retention favourite
- Cleanses without stripping
- Iconic clean scent
- Safe for colour-treated hair
Originally a stable-side formula for show horses, Mane 'n Tail Original Shampoo became a hair-care icon when humans noticed the unmistakable difference: thicker, glossier, stronger lengths that resist breakage and tangle less. This 1L family-sized bottle is the same trusted formula trimmed for everyday use — a rich, lathering shampoo that cleanses without stripping, balanced for daily washing and built around moisturisers and proteins that support length retention. It is a favourite of naturalistas and braiders for clarifying braid build-up, of parents for managing kids' tangle-prone hair, and of length-chasers worldwide as a low-cost, no-frills core wash. Safe for colour-treated hair and gentle enough to follow with the matching Original Conditioner for a complete wash-day routine.
Frequently asked
Questions about this product
Was this really designed for horses?
Yes — it was launched by Straight Arrow in 1970 as a coat-and-mane formula for show horses. Humans adopted it within years for the same reasons: shine and strength.
Is it safe for daily use?
Yes. The formula is mild enough for daily washing on most hair types. For natural and coily hair, 2–3 washes a week is usually plenty.
Will it work on relaxed, locked or braided hair?
Yes to all three. Relaxed hair benefits from the strengthening proteins; braids and locs benefit from the deep clarifying lather. For locs, dilute 1:3 with water for easier rinsing.

Standard Mane n Tail formula. Use once a fortnight for a deeper cleanse, gentler shampoo in between.
