I understand that horsehair brushes are made from the hair of the mane and the tail.
I have a Vie-Long brush. There is no doubt that mine came from the tail.
The warmer the lather the stronger the odour.
I have tried all kinds of remedies including, Febreze, mouthwash, sodium Bicarbonate, vinegar, borax (20 Mule Team no less), hand and laundry soaps and after shave.
The odour is gradually fading but I am going to try tomato juice which removes Eau de Skunk from from stricken dogs and cats.
Other than its B.O. it is an excellent brush. Much softer and gentler than I thought it would be.
