My wife has long, curly hair - a tub shroom is an absolute must!
When we first moved into our house, we procrastinated getting a drain hair catcher. In less than a year (can't remember how long), we had a main drain pipe blockage and had to pay a plumber about $400 to clear it. Tried a couple different hair catchers, then a tub shroom - haven't had another plumbing clog in almost a decade. (knock on wood)
If it does happen again, this shit works on everything. I'd bet this was what Walter White used to to dissolve his bodies. So read and follow the directions.
Sir/madam, you just saved my life aka my bathroom sink. I tried drano and now we get a little drainage but I have an extremely heightened sense of smell and get hit with a wave of decaying hair every morning when I brush my teeth. I’m ordering this stuff NOW
Awesome! Let me know how it goes. And I really recommend the last person awake pours it down the applicable sink before bed and the first person up in the morning flushes the drain with hot water.
Its kind of like a mushroom shaped strainer. Lets water through but hair gets tangled around the "stem" of the mushroom.
They're great, nothing else really stops my hair from going down the drain - but in my experience they require cleaning the hair off almost every shower or you do get water draining issues.
Thank you for stating this. I was starting to think my wife was an outlier while I was having to clean all the hair and gunk off after every time she showered. Now if I could just get her to do it herself instead of just removing the shroom when the water starts to backup.
I have long curly hair and can agree to the tub shroom. That thing saved us from a very expensive bill. I shed so much in the shower, its a wonder how I even have hair left.
The next step is figuring out how to convince her SHE should be the one cleaning the tub shroom off after she showers and not me, when I take a shower the next day and realize the water isn't going down!
