ok well youll need to do some braids on his neck just to section it. If you dont want to do it all in one day which will take long especially if it is your 1st time pulling a mane. After you braid it undo one braid at a time and take a mane pulling come and hold at the bottom of the hair with one hand and with the other take the comb and comb upwards this should leave just a view strands in your hand and take that hair and wrap it 2 or 3 times around the comb and pull downward. this will not be very painful because horses dont have a nerve at the top of evry hair. Hope you understand this. Best wishes!

***comb not come
and you want to do a downward and outward jerk.

You have a welsh don't you? I would think you're not supposed to pull it.
