What Did I Do

I've been considering this for a while and for some reason today, I just decided to go with it.

I've always liked the look of a roached mane and have kind of wanted to do it to Jetta for a long time but always thought that I'd never actually do it. I was too chicken.

For some reason, I just threw all those reasons out the window and shaved it all off today. I hate keeping it pulled, Jetta hates having it pulled, I'm probably not going to show that much this summer, it will keep her cool on our trail rides and I think she'll rock the mohawk.

Mid-way through the cut I kind of had a panicked "what am I doing?!" moment, but now that it's done, I actually really like it.

  1. Looks really nice! I love roached manes but can't convince myself to do Lilly's! Someone needs to come over and do it when I'm not around. LOL

    1. It was so tough to do but I think I love it! You should do it, we'll start a trend :) Definitely have to credit Andrea for starting it with O's mane though.

    1. Do it! It's just going to be so much more manageable now. And I think Jetta'll be super awesome with a mohawk!

  4. Cool! I bet you will really like it when it grows out a bit. I did Roz's last year and the in between stage was quite cute!

  5. Oh, I like it! She looks great. I think I'm going back to pulling Tuck's mane for the first chunk of this summer at least, but I do miss his mohawk...!

  7. But what will you hang on to when you jump? I swear that's when I do half my mane pulling.

    1. You know, I didn't even think about that until you mentioned it, but it's so true! I used her mane a lot... Guess I need to get an "oh sh!t" neck strap to use.
