1. Divide the tail in half and clip the front half out of the way.
2. From the very tip of the horses tail bone, hold the fake tail up 1-3 inches up the bone, depending on the length of the fake tail.
3. Grab three sections of hair, to span about an inch to two inches wide and start the beginning of a braid, much like you would a forelock. Braid approximately 4 cross overs.
4. Pull the middle section of the braid through the loop and continue braiding down.
5. Take a piece of the fake tail from the right side and cross it into your braid. Now repeat with a piece of fake tail from the left side.
6. Continue the braid down past the end of the tail bone and secure with a rubber band. The entire braid should run about 3-4 inches long.
For extra security, take two pieces of yarn and tie them in half around the tail loop. Braid the yarn in with the hair normally and tie off at the end of your braid.
