You take out the curry comb, give it a few swipes, and a cloud rises: dust in your eyes, hair in ours, a grey layer on your jacket, and a sweater crackling with static electricity. You cough, the horse shakes its head, and you finish grooming halfway through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe problem isn't the brush.

Dead hairs clump together instead of dispersing. Static electricity vanishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is not a gimmick for comfort.
