There is so much conflicting advice about brushing. The best advice I received, and try to follow religiously is:
Never brush a dry coat, buy a detangling spray
Never spray the detangler straight onto the coat, spray the brush and that will spread the detangling throughout the coat.
Brush at least once a day, it helps avoid huge matts.
Best equipment I've ever bought for my baby's hair is the insinis brush, a madan brush (black because he is soft coated) and a madan miustache comb.
Forgot to add my favorite shampoo is yorkie splash and shine. I use yorkie sheen for detangling. I bathe him every Sunday.

I agree that water makes matts worse. I know I probably should only brush him after a bath, butthat would be way to painful. I brush him out before, and brush his hair as I'm drying him.
