Oil Brushes

what's the best way to remove dark acrylic paints from paint brushes? how about oil paints?
I started off with pretty new, crisp brushes, did one painting, then tried to wash it out with soap and warm water. Did not help. Is there a solution you can recommend? Or a handy, creative method of ridding the stains from my brushes?
with oil it usually takes me awhile to get my brushes clean. But I start out with turpentin and get them where you can't actually see paint on them but they might still have the color on it. then i use regular bars of soap i like dove the best i dont know why i think they work the best then i press straight down onto the soap and move in tiny circles get it packed then i massage it in with my figer against my palm. smaller brushes you want to be more gentile with this. it usually takes a couple time to get them 100% clean but it works good and when brushed are 30$ a pop you want them to last. Acrylic paints i have differents brushes that are usually synthetic and turpentine isnt needed but what does work is using a thinner but its bad on brushes that are synthetic so soap and water and keep doing it until the water is clear when running under tap. hope it works for you.
