Sharing the same hairbrush

Q: A family member keeps saying that he was told family members/friends, etc. should not share the same hairbrush as it creates envy and jealousy, he says a Moulana told him it's a hadith (he won't say which Moulana though). 

Now, as an Aalimah, I don't recall learning about this hadith but I could be wrong. Can you please help me out.

A: This is superstition and baseless.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
