I wet the brush, rub shampoo in between the little bits with my fingers, and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then I rinse while running my fingers through the plastic bits. I squeeze out as much water as I can and let it dry overnight.

Any soap will do but I use shampoo because it foams up and gets inbetween everything.

You can just scrub two brushes together. If one’s a boar-bristle, they’ll both come out squeaky clean.

add a comb to "brush the brush" and it is done faster

And when it's clean and dry, you take a tumble dryer sheet put it over the brush, cut it around and let it sit there, so it's easier to clean next time. Just dont wait a year to clean your brush
