How do I clean the brush?

I just pull the hair off the wire and run my traditional fulrminator through the brush. These seem to work well

I have a basic stainless steel grooming comb, one end being larger than the other (you can find them here). The smaller comb side clears the brush side, whereas the larger spaced end cleans the wire side.

The manufacturer did not recommend how to clean. I used a home made brush cleaner I use from online. If you'd like to know more about the one I use go to www.bubblebabez.com

There are specialized brush soap you can buy at make up stores or you do a home remedy. I wash my brushes with regular hair shampoo and then conditioner.

I make sure to always have the brush with the bristles downward...I then add a little bit of olive oil to the soap I use (baby shampoo) and mix them. That really helps condition the bristles of your brush and it keeps it in great condition!

I soak mine in hot soapy water, rinse with hot water, then put them in the dishwasher, lol. Not sure what kind of brush could be used. Maybe push a paper towel in one end with a skewer & run it out through the other side? I hope this helps!

I use a kitchen brush, you can pick up one at walmart cheap, or on amazon, it is the handled variety and it cleans this tool very well.

Hi Scott. I have done both methods. For these Brushes, I would use a regular mild soap with water. Dont waist your money on certain cleansers, the brushes arent that good of a quality to do that. Just make sure after you clean the brushes pinch the tip of them and lay them on a flat surface or they will fuzz up and become useless.

I just use a dry stiff bristled paint brush. Gets into all the hard to clean spots.

Here is my tutorial on brush washing. It can be done multiple ways with various products. This is my way.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IApdwMXuMFk&index;=3&list;=PLpwn4HrFm1pEKnLOVxlvQTaBV53uKKYGf

I would suggest using a water soluble product and wash the brush with hot/warm soapy water to clean it afterwards. I threw away my directions, so don't remember what it suggested nor it it warned against using oil based products. I don't use products that need paint thinner to clean them off the bristles. Sorry I couldn't be more help...

I use a bottle brush to clean mine but it is big enough to put hand in. It's easily accesable to me.

There's a screw in the middle of the plastic tip, so I'm guessing you can remove that and slide out the rows of the brush for cleaning. It's very easy to clean just leaving it intact, though. As for the hardness of the bristles, they are mostly rigid but have a little bend when forced.

I only gave this brush a 3 star. I was expecting it be as good as my old one which was very similar. To answer your question, it doesn't clean very well. I used a damp paper towel to rub the lint, fuzz and kitty hair away, rubbing the opposite way. I haven't tried to clean it any other way. Sorry I couldn't really help you.

Since I am the only one that uses my brush I don't really do much. Just rinse the brush in hot water and let it air dry.

Mine has never required cleaning and I use it almost daily. I think a soft bristle brush should do the trick if you feel like cleaning.

General maintenance is just pulling the hair out it. Washing it will limit the life of the brush, but if you can't stand it - Pull all the hair out of it sliding the end of a comb through the bristles. Suds up some shampoo on a wet wash cloth and gently rub through the bristles. Rinse all the suds off under running faucet and then towel dry it throughly and let the brush lay bristles down for about 24 hours until it's dry. Don't let the brush sit in water or submerge it in the sink.

The most I've ever done for mine is to make sure I rinse it thoroughly with hot water after each use, making sure that all of the cleanser that I used is rinsed out completely. After that, I squeeze it and hang it to dry. I also agree with the first poster that a mild soap or vinegar should work as well. Also, something to consider is that the bristles are supposed to be naturally antimicrobial according to the company. As a side note, I've also been wondering how often the brush should be replaced if anyone has any thoughts on that.
