Identify the brush material. Follow separate manufacturer rules for wood, fabric cushions or electrical parts.
Carefully lift trapped hair from the bristles with fingers or the tip of a comb.
For a washable brush, mix lukewarm water with a little gentle shampoo or detergent.
Use a soft small cleaning brush around the bristles without bending or pulling them out.
Rinse only sections approved for washing; do not immerse wood handles, vented cushions or electrical components.
Shake off water and dry fully in a ventilated place without crushing bristles. Replace a cracked brush or one shedding bristles.
