Neil Miller said:I used to be a painter and decorator in another life, and I do the same with my shaving brush as I did with my paint brushes - wipe them and hang upside down. Keeps the moisture away from the core. I'm not concerned about bristle-shedding, I just don't like the idea of encouraging a damp micro-environment where bacteria can thrive. Every now and then I use the brush on an alum block for the smae reason - alum kills bacteria.

I doubt there's much in the bristles up or bristles down thing - so long as it's well-shaken out and maybe painted a couple of strokes on a towel.
