I just cannot seem to get my L&P brushes clean. Any tips?
 
Not sure what you mean by clean, are you gettin L&P stuck in your bristles? if so mixed ratio might be a bit wet. To get it out leave your brush soaking in monomer over night that should get it out xx
 
'always follow manufacturers recomendations'

some companies sell and recommend a 'brush cleaning solution' - if this is what matches the type of brush you have, then you should use this to remove dried monomer (as per thier instructions)

CND however, do not recommend the use of anything other than monomer with their 100% red kolinsky brush's. If need be (as sarah said) they can be soaked overnight in monomer to help soften and break down the dried product.
Easiest way to do this is use a deep dappen dish and a large amount of blu-tack to suspend the brush head in the liquid. If it is resting on the bottom of the dish it will develop a nearly permanent bend...

On a side note, it pays to not ever let your brush come into contact with anything other than monomer/polymer/nail plate. You should never touch it, nor add anything to it
(eg. shampoo/ conditioner) These hairs are very delicate and specifically chosen for their ability to retain monomer... don't mess with them....

Most importantly....

Why is your brush getting product in it so often?
Odds are you are working far to wet, or over playing, not wiping it out thoroughly or using an inferior brush....?!
If you solve this issue, you won't have to worry about them getting so dirty.
