I own 14 brushes of different varieties. Once every two weeks or so I take a fine tooth comb and comb through the bristles of my brushes. I find it keeps the bristles tidy, especially the badger and horse hair brushes. Do you comb your brushes?

No.
I'll sometimes run a de-tangler comb my wife has through my Vie Long horses.
Neither my brushes nor hair.

Never thought of it.
The knots of all my badger, synth and boar brushes look very orderly to me, so no, I've never considered combing them. If it's not broke, why try to fix it?
No
No. Depending on use, I give them a very short warm water Dawn bath and a water/vinegar soak every couple of months. It really cleans them up nicely and removes any soap residue so there is no need to comb.
Nope.
No.
Yes, but only began recently. I had no clue how greatly this improves the condition of the knots and face feel. When the knots dry they go back to like new tight formation.
No
Yes - I hope it breaks in my boar brushes a bit. I try everything....
Nope. KISS for me.
Only if a new brush is a shedder. Then I comb it a few times to remove any loose hairs.
Nope.
Used to but no longer brush them. There is no real need to do this IMO
If they happen to get a knot in them. Boars-0, Horse-0, Synthetic-0, and Badger-1
