Mane shape genetics were introduced in February 2018.
While mane shape genetics are nowhere near as detailed as base genetics when it comes to breeding, a mane shape's fails might just convince you to choose one shape over another.
Please keep in mind when viewing this page that the headshots shown below the main lion art display what that mane shape can pass and "fail" to if bred to itself.

Combo
So far, there is only one mane shape that can be bred from a combination of different mane shapes: Royal.
For this one combo mane shape, it is implied that breeding the Royal mane shape to any of its parent factors (including Royal) has a chance of producing a Royal-maned cub.
Any parent can have the required factor mane shapes. Whether you are breeding a Barbary-maned father to a Hellraiser-maned mother, or a Hellraiser-maned father to a Barbary-maned mother, the Royal mane shape just requires one factor from each side to be bred to each other.
Royal Mane Shape
Potentially achieved by breeding two factor mane shapes to each other (listed above). For example, if you have a Barbary lioness, breed her to a Hellraiser, Sideburn, Thick, or Tufted stud to have a chance at producing a Royal-maned cub. It can also be passed down from a Royal-maned parent when bred to another Royal-maned parent, or when bred to one of its factor mane shapes.
This mane shape is required for the Mane Imperial adult mutation.
When bred, Royal passes the following.
