How do I care for my Chinese calligraphy brushes?

I got a little Chinese calligraphy set and noticed the brushes are sharp and stiff. I used one and when I was done, I washed it but when it dried it wasn't stiff and sharp anymore. Does it need to be stiff and sharp like the other ones? If so, how do I fix it?
When I say it isn't sharp anymore, I just mean that it isn't needle sharp like the other ones, but it does have the same general shape; the tip is just a teenie tiny bit wider.

Eric,
The reason brushes are sharp and stiff is because the brush companies add a kind of starch to the brushes so they look good when on display for purchase. After washing in Master's Brush Soap, store the brushes on a downhill slope so water will go down to the tip, not remain under the farrel (metal strip that holds the bristles to the wodden end) to rot the wood.

There are "brush dryers" you can buy, but I just take small milk or juice cartons, cut a slot in them, with the slot going around the corner so it will be the downhill portion. So you wash, then put them in the homemade brush dryer. As they get older you may want to shape the tip of the brush a bit when it's still wet.
