You can always guarantee when you want to clip your horse it will be on a windy day and there is nothing worse than horse hair penetrating your clothes. If you can, try and clip inside making sure you have good day light.
If you have no choice but to clip in the wind, make sure the wind is behind you and get a friend to help. Another helpful tip is to bath your horse the prior day, this will help your clippers take the coat off quicker and easier.

No more worries, take off the Clipit suit and be hair free!! Just add your lippy and head to the shops.
The suit is made from a hair resistant material that repels through a negative charge. If you happen to leave your suit in your car over night this can create a positive charge and it will attract hair. So always take your suit in everyday, wash it a 30 degrees and allow it to dry naturally. Washing instructions, see this article
