I was thinking about how to dissolve the hair caught in a hairbrush, because of this thread, and
asked my hairdresser what she thought...she didn't have any magic answer. Because I was planning
to use a "liquid plumber" in my kitchen sink, I asked her about putting the brush in a container
of the liquid plumber, which stated on the outside of the container that it "dissolved hair."
She said of course, not a wooden brush with natural bristles, but didn't really know about a brush with
man-made bristles and an aluminum core. It would be easy to test if one has an old brush ready
for the trash can.
