FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Below are some Questions That Customers Have Asked.
-
Inlay rings, sliders, inlay cuff bracelets, and some earrings and pendents are sealed. When the sealant is applied to the horse hair it darkens the hair and gives the hair a glossy look. You may choose to skip the sealing process, which leaves the hair closer to your horses natural hair color. Unsealed keepsakes are unprotected, and susceptible to damage. We recommend sealing the keepsake.

Absolutely!! The most horses I have ever combined was 20.

Yes, it can be hard to put the bracelet on with one hand. The horse hair is stiff and does not lay flat on your wrist when putting it on. That is one reason I add a big O ring to connect with the lobster claw. This is how I put mine on: I lay my wrist down on my bracelet on my leg with the o ring sticking up and then connect the claw to the ring. Takes a little practice. If I am in a hurry I just ask my husband to help!!😉
