Word origin

The word headstall originated from Middle English 'hedstal', which combines 'hed' (head) and 'stal' (stall). It has been used in the context of horse equipment for centuries, evolving from simply a strap to hold the bit in place to a more decorative and functional piece of gear for riders.
