Hi hun, only joined this today so hi

I aint too sure but done the same myself years ago (plastic cover), broke away the cover without tearing the brush den soaked bristle area only( be sure not to immerse barrell) in acetone..

might have to get a new brush tho, whoever is training you really shud have told you to throw away the plastic holder so i would prob check if they'll replace your brush if you bought it there... hope you sort it hun

ps: try wiping excess monomer off brush as it will cause bristles to loosen if it soaks the barrell

Not sure if you've seen this before but go to the "Nail Zoo" site (link below) and watch the video named "how to make a brush box" I did it and its really easy and you can decorate it however you want. hth
