As Gennaro pointed out, human hair is not very effective since it is  
too weak and while it is good to have clear hair, the conditioner  
might be counter-productive. But horse hair - particularly body hair -  
is traditionally good and, depending on your location, can be  
plentiful. Long strands of anything are a problem. It is also  
preferable to wash the oils out of it since this helps it to mix  
better, otherwise it tends to clump up badly. Mane and tail are less  
desirable since the long strands need to be chopped up into short  
pieces just as straw is chopped when added to plaster.
