	This is a great way to show "hair pull." It sounds uncomfortable but I use this in every massage usually as an initial way to capture the horses' attention and relax them. You can see Sweetie's relaxed ears, soft eyes and lips. If you listen really hard you can hear her change in breathing patterns and nice long, deep sighs. This feels like when you go to get your hair washed at the salon! Hair pulls are basically a way to release the most superficial muscles so we can access deeper muscles later in the massage with techniques such as folding and skin rolling.
