Best way to clean brushes...?

[emily22]

Hiya,

Im almost finished with my nail extension course (at last!) but would really like to know what your top tips are for cleaning your brushes (gel brush and acrylic brush).
For the gel brush our tutor has said you just wipe it with gel wipe and then keep the bristles covered until next use (to keep it dust free), and then for the acrylic brush you dip it into monomer to clean it, wipe out the excess liquid after and then again cover the bristles..

Is this the way everyone else does it or do you all have other ways to keep your brushes both hygienic and long-lasting!?:green:

She's right on both counts! That's all you need to do tokeep your brushes clean...... Make sure you swish your l+p brush in clean monomer though!
