I was recently reading a product review on Breeches and Boat Shoes. The author had been sent a pair of grooming hands to try out on their horse and then write a review for.
This particular grooming item works like a curry comb. Instead, it is a pair of gloves that you put on and use to brush over your horse. According to the Grooming Hands website, the gloves are designed with:
- Specifically placed massage points for easy gripping and optimal pressure
- Deep massaging tips on middle and ring fingers
- Open access for thumb and tips of pointer and pinky fingers for dexterity
The science behind the gloves is listed as:
- Unique thermo plastic with anti-static properties
- Carbon filaments throughout glove to reduce static discharge
- Tested across hundreds of animals
- Latex free
It’s always interesting to see new horse related products that come onto the market. Generally it seems they come about because someone sees a gap in horse related products and they find a way to fill it, or they see something can be done better – so they do!
That seems to be the way with grooming hands. They are identified as pet massage and grooming gloves – so not just for horses. But they definitely seem like a good substitute for a curry comb, to me! I know my hands end up quite dirty when I am currying horses in preparation for a sale – having gloves to protect my hands would be welcome!
This product that is designed and assembled in the United States has many benefits:
- Use fingers to scrub the body, loosen dirt, dead skin and feel for lumps, scabs or ticks
- Ability to use the cloth of the glove to wipe around eyes or nose or face, and legs
- Able to pick up and/or hold leash, lead line, or halter
- Massage muscles at the same time as brushing
- You will never drop your brush again!
- Use while bathing or washing your pet
- Machine washable and easy to clean
