UH, I hate to be the one to tell you but most children don't walk until they are about a year old! I don't think that the circumcision was to blame! Shame on you for trying to blame your parents!

Let's get back to the subject at hand before we get slapped by the MODS!!

Distilled water is cheap so give it a go! If it doesn't do the trick, you can always have it on hand for your car's battery.

If it goes away with distilled water then you know it is the hard minerals from your tap.

Everyone is trying to avoid telling you the hard truth: you have a case of crispy tips. It was the cause of a kind of madness in the 19th century and the root of a dance similar to the Tarantella called the Crispy Hop. If you suddenly break out in kind of a hop, knee bend, hop and jump.....God help you, God help all of us.

One of the things you have to consider when receiving advice from members, literally from all over the world on a variety of subject, is that your conditions and circumstances may not be the same as theirs.

As far as brushes go the quality or hardness of your water will make a big difference in performance and problems you may encounter. The Humidity in the air where you live and the conditions of where and how you store your brushes will affect the condition of your brush. For example my bathroom has 3 windows, 2 of which are almost always open and we have relatively low humidity. Yours may be completely different.

Bottom line is anything that works for someone else may not work for you. If the advice does no harm try it, it is the only way you will know if it works for you.

There is a guy on the net who advocates honing on a brick… my advice… don’t do that.

My Thater 2 band dries with "crusty" tips. Just the nature of the hair. Usually brushes that dry like that have very soft tips when wet. The "gel tipped" Rooney Heritage brushes dried like that.
