Removing Hair from a Bathtub

RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By (Guest Post) It doesn't sound like her problem is with the hair in the drain, but with the hair on the sink/toilet/tub itself. I work in housekeeping in an assisted living and I use a dry cloth and it comes right up. Never thought to get the vac out, but that sounds like a lot of work to me... however would work.

I found vacuuming out the tub and sink before I start cleaning is much less yucky.

Hope this one helps.

One is usually bigger than the other. I have my own bathroom & short hair so every couple of days before using the tub I remove the mesh insert (which is completly dry) & take a tissue & remove the collected hair. It does the trick. GOOD LUCK. Posted on 02/21/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By kw (Guest Post) Surprise! I just found out I can clean hair out of the shower with my feet, mainly my toes, while taking a shower I tried it while the water were running also after I got out of the shower, water off, do this before the hair gets dry, easy to remove, good luck.

I have 5 daughters and myself with long hair and the sons. This items works great. It brings up loads of hair that cloggs the sinks.

Contact Try to realize that a single hair is only a hair, not a collection of filth, germs, or maggots. It used to gross me out until I began washing others hair as a Hairdressing Student. Once you take the time to see that hair is dead, washed often, has only a little grease/oil/ shampoo/lint on it, it will NOT harm you in any way. God bless and help you to not become as my dear grandmother was: So terrified of a single hair that she'd toss the whole dinnerplate of food if one was seen or found in or on it. This is absurd and a terrible waste, nothing to fear at all. : ) Posted on 02/21/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By jmz2005 (246) Profile Contact Thank You for all the great suggestions. And yes, I do wear gloves when cleaning the bathroom, would not do it without them. I will be using some of these ideas on monday when I return to work.

Posted on 02/21/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By Mary (Guest Post) To really remove hair from tub and sink, use a piece of dry or slightly damp tissue, either facial tissue or bath tissue. With water, it just floats around. Posted on 02/20/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By Heather Australia (Guest Post) The brush attachment on a vacuum would work really well if the surface of whatever you are cleaning is dry. We don't use our bath/spa all that often and I clean the dust away with the brush attachment.

Just use one and it will pick up all the hair first time around. They are washable too if you want to or just toss out. I use them for dusting, picking up pet hair, etc. You get a large box at Walmart for a couple of bucks. You will love them!

Posted on 02/20/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By (Guest Post) A wet micro fiber cloth (dollartree has them) works wonders! It sticks right to it, you still have to pick it of of the cloth but it will be all at once, so it wont be as bad, like a band aid do it quick! Posted on 02/20/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By dpn (1) Contact Hi, I suggest you look in the pet section. There are types of rubber "brushes" that pick up hair. They work good on my furniture so maybe they'd do the trick with hair in the bathroom. Peace Posted on 02/20/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By theseamstress (620) Contact I praise you for cleaning it up anyway even though it is gross, most people would not and it shows you care and do your job well. Those little plastic caps do work good and are only $1 each but I find they scoot around to easy if the water flow is hard or if you bump them and alot of the hair slips by them. If you canm clean out the yucky mess one good time then you can take metal screen (like on windows) it comes in rolls at the hard ware store and cut you a circle of it the size of your drain and turn back the edges a bit so they are not sharp with a pair of needle nose pliers. The screen is heavy enough to stay in place and after each use you can just pick up the screen and brush it off clean with an old tooth brush never having to touch the hair by hand. This method works on any type drain for the sinks,tubs. By the way long tweezers work good to get that nasty hair out of the drains.

Contact One of those little white hair collector drains helps - then you just spray the whole bathtub and shower and it collects in the little drain, you pick up the little plastic drain and take the hair out with a piece of tissue paper. I like these because I don't let hair go down the drain because it will clog up the pipes... Hope this helped.... robyn Posted on 02/20/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Hair from a Bathtub By pamphyila (598) Profile Blog! Contact Pick it up with a damp tissue or paper towel.
