If you want to remove the hair, get a pair of tweezers and pluck it out over a garbage can. If you want to actually clean it, try using a dust cloth or a paper towel with some light, chemical-free cleaner on it. If possible (depedning on the material the brush is made out of), run it under water for a few seconds.

natural bristle means pig hair and usally its wild boars hair.there is "split-boar" bristle too which means its split on the ends ,like the split ends of a human hair.these type of brushes are normally used for stains and polyurathanes, and oil based paints!they are fantastic for artist "oil colors" also.The reason is when you go to clean your brush, you need to clean it with mineral spirits or turpintine or any kind of petrolium based solvent. if you clean a natural bristle brush with water, it will frizz up and not hold its shape!
