Give him a 15 to 30 minutes soak in distilled, filtered or rainwater. They are sensitive to tap water chemicals. After the soak shake them out let him dry a bit (upside down) before you hang it up. In the future mist daily and soak weekly all using the distilled filtered or rainwater.

If its completely brown it may be toast. If not the above suggest soaking will hopefully help

This is true it's hard to tell in the picture exactly how dry the leaves are.
