Chrissy B asked:
I want to clean my natural boar bristle hairbrush because I’ve been using it to brush my hair before I shower and I want to remove any natural oils that may have been deposited on it, not to mention styling product buildup etc… Is there a certain way/method to cleaning it? Should I use shampoo on it or something else? Thanks.
Thanks for the tips. Btw, it is a wooden hairbrush. I definitely won’t soak it now.

It is not necessary to wash pure boar bristles, because they don’t take dirt like regular synthetic bristles. Just remove the hair from the bristles, and the hairbrush is ready to use again.
If you feel more comfortable, you could rinse the hairbrush under lukewarm water.
Hairbrushes made out of wood, should not be soaked in water. This will cause the wood to swell, and the protective lacquer will *****.

I agree with not soaking it. But I use diluted shampoo and hot water to get rid of the reside.
