Caring for your Braided Horsehair Jewelry

The Braided Horsehair

Horsehair is very durable and will last a very long time with a little care. 

Remove hair jewelry before swimming as chemicals can dry and damage the horsehair.

Wash your hair jewelry 1-2 times a year with mild shampoo and conditioner. While wet, either wear the jewelry or tie your bracelet or necklace around a round object (such as a soda can for bracelets) and let it dry. 

​

Wearing horsehair jewelry beside other jewelry or watches could fray the hair.

To prevent damage from moths and insects, store in an airtight container.

A piece of cedar is a good idea.
