Braids That Stay Tight Until the Last Class — Without Re-Doing at 4am

There is a reason the warm-up ring at every major hunter show smells faintly of Quick Braid. Professionals use it because it works: the grip is there from the first pull, the braids comb out without washing, and the hair stays soft and natural — no flaking, no stiffening, no disaster when the humidity spikes at 10am.

At 64 oz., you have enough for the full season.

Show Braids That Fall Apart Before the First Class

You spent 45 minutes on those braids at 5am. By 9am, two have loosened, one has pulled sideways, and the stray hairs you tried to manage are back. A horse's mane has to look polished for the entire show day — not just the first class — and most braiding sprays either do not grip enough to hold or leave the hair so stiff and flaky that combing out becomes a full grooming session.

Loose Braids Signal to Judges That You Are Not Ready

Hunter judging is about overall picture, and a mane with two loose braids, sticking-up flyaways, or uneven pull tells the judge something before your horse even reaches the first fence. Professional braiders know this — which is why they are very specific about what goes in a competition mane. A second spray-down mid-day with the wrong product can leave hair stiff and visibly coated, which is worse than a little movement.

  • Low-grip sprays allow braids to loosen and shift during long multi-class show days
  • Stiffening products leave hair crunchy and flaky, making comb-out a lengthy process
  • Flyaway hairs re-emerge through a class, breaking the clean hunter braid look
  • Running out of product mid-show season forces scrambling for substitutes that do not match

Quick Braid 64oz: Professional Grip, Natural Feel, Easy Comb-Out

Exhibitors Quick Braid delivers the grip professional braiders rely on to produce tight, clean braids that hold through an entire show day. Hair stays soft and natural — not stiff, not flaky — and braids comb out completely without washing, so re-braiding on day two starts with a clean slate. At 64 oz., the refill size carries you through a full show season without running short.

What Riders Are Saying

★★★★★

"

I have braided horses professionally for 14 years and Quick Braid is the only product I trust on a client's horse at a rated show. The grip is consistent, the braids stay put through long days in the ring, and the hair is never crunchy or flaky when the braids come out. The 64 oz. size is the smart buy for anyone doing a full season.

My mare has a very fine, slippery mane that defeats every braiding spray I have tried. Quick Braid is the only thing that gives me enough grip to get tight, clean button braids that actually stay through her stadium round. I do not walk into a show without it.

The thing that sold me was combing out without washing. We do two-day shows and on day two I just comb the braids out, run a brush through, and re-braid. The hair is still soft and manageable, not gummy. This is the most practical braiding product I have ever used.

The 64 oz. Refill: For Riders Who Know How Much They Use in a Season

Experienced competitors know: the 8 oz. bottle runs out at the worst possible moment — mid-show, when there is no time to improvise. The 64 oz. refill size solves that problem for the full season. Quick Braid's formula has been refined to hit the narrow window between "not enough hold" and "too much product" — the result is a spray that grips without stiffening, holds without flaking, and releases without washing. It is why professionals come back to it show after show.

  • 64 oz. refill size for full-season supply
  • Revolutionary grip formula for tighter, neater braids
  • Leaves hair soft and natural with minimal stray hairs
  • Braids comb out without washing between show days
  • Made in the USA
