Hair is a common culprit when it comes to blocked drains in Lincolnshire. When hair accumulates in your drain, it can cause a blockage that prevents water from flowing freely. This can lead to slow draining, backups, and even sewage overflows. The good news is that unblocking a drain with hair is a relatively simple process that can be done with a few basic tools.

Before we dive into the solution, it's essential to understand how hair-related drain blockages occur. Some common causes include:

• Excessive hair shedding
• Improper disposal of hair clippings
• Using a drain without a hair-catching filter
• Failure to regularly clean and maintain your drains

If you're experiencing a blocked drain due to hair, follow these steps to unblock it:

1. Turn off the water supply: Before attempting to unblock your drain, turn off the water supply to prevent further water from flowing into the pipe.
2. Use a plunger: A plunger is a simple and effective tool for unblocking drains. Create a seal around the drain and push down on the plunger to create suction. Repeat this process several times to loosen the hair blockage.
3. Use a drain snake: A drain snake (also known as an auger) is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to break up the hair blockage. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
4. Use baking soda and vinegar: Mix equal parts baking soda and vinegar to create a natural cleaning solution. Pour the mixture down the drain and let it sit for a few hours before rinsing with hot water.
5. Use a drain cleaner: If the above methods don't work, you can try using a drain cleaner. However, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and take necessary safety precautions.

To prevent hair-related drain blockages in the future, consider the following tips:

• Use a hair-catching filter in your shower or bathtub
• Regularly clean and maintain your drains
• Dispose of hair clippings properly
• Use a drain screen or mesh to catch hair and other debris
