You share a bathroom with Kay Parker and Honey Wilder?

Go buy you a snake and clean as much as possible out of the line. Don’t waste your money on drain cleaners.

i almost broke every finger on my right hand in a nasty electric snake accident.

all i have to say is have a 'spotter' when using an electric snake because it only takes a half second distraction to wrap your gloved hand up in the unit.

We still talking plumbing here?

tell her to stick it to the wall like the rest of us and then throw it in the trash when she gets out of the shower?
also, brushing her hair BEFORE getting in the shower will help tremendously. especially if she wears it up or in a ponytail alot.

I know your pain.

I was very skeptical when I purchased this because other similar products didn't budge the hair. But it worked wonders.

anyone who lives with women knows my dilemma, hair clogging up deep into the drain pipes.

Yeah, I apparently married a Wookiee who then gave birth to my half-Wookiee daughter. The loose hair flows down my hallways like tumbleweed through a ghost town. I bought a Roomba to help, and their hair clogs the Roomba to where I need to maintenance it every couple of days.

Anyway, I try to avoid chemicals as much as possible. What I've done in the past, when the hair clogs the shower is stuff a wet rag into the overflow (this is very important, and most people don't do this) then gird my loins and plunge the frick out of the shower. Plunge the frick out of it, dammit. Hopefully this will push the hair clog into the larger main drain.


Also, as someone else mentioned, get one of those drain covers that catch the wife-Wookiee hair before it can run down the drain.

Use hydrofluoric acid. It'll get rid of the hair, soap scum, tree roots, the pipes, the bathtubs, and your subfloor.

PROBLEM SOLVED!

Actually Sulfuric Acid works great for cleaning scum and hair out of drain pipes. Much stronger than Drano and a lot less corrosive than hydrofluoric acid.

I'd use Drano first and then go to sulfuric acid if you need something stronger.

It's cheap and at any pool supply store. Stay away from the muriatic acid, good for cleaning concrete but not pipes.
