FAQs
Does this head collar come with a lead rope?
No, the LeMieux Essence Head Collar is sold as a standalone item and does not include a lead rope.
Can this be used for turnout?
While it is durable enough for stable use and handling, it is generally recommended to use a turnout-specific head collar with breakaway features for field use to ensure horse safety.
Is the material machine washable?
We recommend hand-washing in cool water with mild detergent to preserve the hardware and the specialized soft shell lining.
How do I ensure a symmetrical fit?
This head collar features dual-sided adjustment points, which allows you to balance the fit evenly on both sides of the horse's face.
What is the primary material used?
The head collar is constructed from durable nylon webbing with a soft shell outer for added comfort.
Troubleshooting
Head collar feels too tight on the nose
Adjust the noseband buckle until there is a two-finger gap to ensure comfort and prevent pressure sores.
Brushed metal fittings look dull
Clean the metal components with a soft, damp cloth and buff them dry with a clean microfiber towel.
Buckles are difficult to slide through the nylon
Check for debris or dried mud within the buckle mechanism; brush it out with a soft brush and ensure the nylon strap is straight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the perfect fit, start by loosening all adjustment points before placing the head collar on your horse. Once positioned, adjust the noseband and headpiece evenly until there is enough space for two fingers to fit between the noseband and the horse's cheek bone.
For cleaning, the nylon material can be wiped down with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, the head collar can be hand-washed in cool water with mild soap and allowed to air dry away from direct heat sources, which helps preserve the integrity of the nylon webbing and the soft shell padding.
