We recommend washing your brush before its first use to ensure it’s free from any residual manufacturing oils or dust. Here's how to properly care for your brush bristles:

1. Wash Before First Use: Gently rinse the bristles with lukewarm water and mild Artist brush approved soap. Avoid using hot water, as this can damage the bristles over time.
2. Condition the Bristles: After washing, apply a small amount of conditioner to help soften the bristles. This will also help in reshaping the bristles if needed, and maintaining their form for optimal performance.
3. Drying: Allow the brush to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, with the bristles facing down to prevent moisture buildup in the handle. Avoid using heat or direct sunlight to dry the brush, as it may cause damage.
4. Ongoing Care: Regular care and occasional conditioning will keep your brush bristles in excellent condition, ensuring they maintain their shape and effectiveness for longer use.
