It has grown out considerably where he pulled it, but now the rest of the mane that he didn't pull is way longer than the new growth and it makes the mane look uneven and jagged. I know manes are tricky to cut and I've had someone suggest that I just roach it off and let it all grow back out, but I just can't. The new growth is about 4-5 inches long, and the old growth is about twice that. Should I cut it back to meet the new growth? If so, how?
