clogged shower drain

Soo very gross! And first thing in the morning. Long curly hair that gets wrapped aroung the prongs about 3" down and catches gets built up with skin, body washes, bubble baths, shampoo, and conditioner run-off is a bitch to get untangled to unclog the shower drain. It's like the stopper grows a dreadlock.

Drano does nothing for it.

How do you prevent it? I have to do it at least once a year and would be much more frequntly if I washed my hair more than twice a week. And I try to get the loose ones in my hand and put them aside so they don't go down the drain.

Stop taking showers? Cut your hair?

j/k

Mama-San had the same problem. She would put the loose hair on the shower wall and then collect them when she was done. We got one of those rubber strainers for the drain and it worked fine. It fits over and catches pretty much everything including my boogers.

I hated having to clean out the drain, nasty job.

(edges that point up and away on each side, the site will not let me do spaces for it right)

You remove the drain cover and snake it down into the drain and pull it up, the edges pick up all the crud and things run OK again. My fiancee and her daughter have really long hair...

I think that it's called "Zip-It". We have one and it does work great.

I was wondering if something like that existed!

But just as I was starting to get my appetite back a bit from the drain, and then a pic I saw of a friend's cat who has big holes in her hip, then you mention boogers!!! :puke:

Ohhh nooooo (in the voice of the geico girl). I don't think that will work. I've got the little screw-in thing that you twist up and down to stop the water or let it out. And I 99% of the time take baths while using the hand-held shower head to wash my hair.

that thing is brilliant!!!

I was going to suggest brushing your hair before you get in the shower, to help remove some of the loose ones...but BB&B kicked ass on my idea

A curly-haired girl knows to NEVER brush her hair - it'll ruin the curls. (Hell, I don't even use shampoo anymore...)

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
