I didn't see the brush comb that is used to remove hair stuck on the brush. Is there any other way I can clean that?

While the comb for the sweeper is no longer include with the unit we still have them available and they can be order here: http://www.bissell.com/parts/?sc=part&pro;ductid=2977&partid;=4363&cid;=ccsocial2107

Use the back end of the included brush. Took me a good while to figure this one out!

I found there are tons of YouTube videos that show you step by step how to take it apart and clean it. Mine wasn't working at all - the toggle had no resistance and wouldn't permit the airflow to pass through the brush. My husband watched the video and took it apart and put it back together again. Tedious but definitely something anyone can repair. Not sure if your problem is from dried makeup or perhaps a Non-Dinair product, but I'm sure it can be corrected. Good luck!

I have cleaned my brush many times by first cleaning out off the hair (sometimes I think I would be bald with all that hair!), then I just take a small amount of shampoo, squirt it on and rub it through. I've never soaked it, though, so I couldn't help with that. I do love that brush, though. I have thick hair and it seems to make it softer and more manageable.

First, pull up all the gathered hair on the brush with a pen or pencil then cut out all the tangled hair with scissors and remove the hair. After that fill a spray bottle with white vinegar and water, half of water, half of vinegar (I usually use distilled because that's what we have in the house. Just use whichever). Let it sit on the brush for 5-10 minutes and then use shampoo (I use Suave Professional Natural shampoo that has rosemary and mint extracts) to clean it, rinse it off and let it dry. Voila! You can use this method on any brush, really.

OK -- They suggest using a comb to clean it, but I happened to have a wire brush handy so I tried that and it worked fine. Why don't you send them a message and request a left handed one? I'd love to have one too!

New brush heads that I purchased came with a little tool that helps remove the head. Do you have this tool?

I can't help you. I've never had or used a comb attachment. I do love the dryer.

That's a great question! I've only cleaned excess hair from the brush using a comb, but have not tried soaking it in a solution. However, dipping it in hot, soapy water, a quick once-over with an old wash cloth and a rinse works great! The need for this is very rare though.

I found cleaning the wig hard but the ends would get tangled so i just used a light detangling spray and a comb and just combed lightly through it, and also to recurl it i found that if you just pinned up the curls and added some hairspray it looks brand new, but cause its synthetic it was way to difficult to clean.

Use something like a toothbrush---or even a brand new metal dog comb!? What I have a problem with (for my hard rubber combs)--is hairspray accumulating (believe it or not)!! The effect of this is to block the tongs? on the comb----making it hard to use!! I use a small toothbrush---in seconds it removes the hairspray particles and the comb is fine!!

You cannot remove the brushes, you can remove the cover and it exposes the brushes so you can clean them fairly well. I take off the clear plastic cover and clean it, you can wash it in warm water and dish detergent but be sure to dry it well before you put it back on. I use a microfiber cloth to clean the brushes and it comes with a little tool that cuts off anything that might have wound around the brushes. It does pick up pet hair well, I use it to pick up my cat's hair and he sheds LOTS of it. Hope this helps.

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

Mine has a drawer that pulls out and I just rinse it out with warm water. Then insert it back in machine. I don't see any other way to clean it.

I am not aware of anything that would clean the brush. This is not paint. I would get an inexpensive throw-away brush and be done with it.

If you're talking about removing hair from the sweeper's brush, it is easy to remove the brush from the sweeper. You can use a scissor to cut through the hair and pull it off, or you can also purchase replacement brushes.
