<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">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.<div><br></div><div>Regards,<br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;
