[Julie]

Does anyone know how to get rid of the fuzz and hair that accumulates behind
the ball of the ball tipped hairbrushes?

Use an old toothbrush. Wet the hairbrush first.

Course-toothed comb. I wash my brushes (boar hair and synthetic) with
shampoo.

Combs won't work well with "ball-tipped" brushes.

Ever try the dishwasher?

I have had no problem with baking soda. Its very effective. Just let it
soak. ..Mindy

It's not the brush really , more that the hair and fuzz get wrapped around
the bristel and because it has a rubber ball tip you can't get the hair of
fuzz off the bristel. I have to try and get a scisser tip under to cut it
but that ends up being a real pain.
