Improved self-cleaning brushes (10, 44, 64) are provided which include a brush body (12, 46, 66) having a bristle-supporting portion (16, 50, 70) supporting outwardly extending bristles (18, 54, 72). One or more apertured cleaning sheet(s) (36, 56, 76) are mounted on the brushes so as to receive the bristles (18, 54, 72) therethrough. When it is desired to clean the brush (10, 44, 64), the uppermost cleaning sheet (36, 56, 76) is grasped and pulled outwardly and off of the bristles (18, 54, 72), thereby removing hair and other debris from the bristles (18, 54, 72). Preferably, a multiple sheet pad (20, 52, 74) of cleaning sheets (36, 56, 76) are provided, each with perforation lines (38, 57, 80) and grasping tabs (42, 58, 78), to facilitate lift-off removal of the individual cleaning sheets (36, 56, 76).
