If your drain isn’t draining properly, then it might be because of all the hair and dirt hanging or stuck in your drain, it doesn’t matter if its the drain on your kitchen sink, bathroom, or shower, and you don’t have to worry about it too much because this occurs pretty common. Here’s a brilliant hack by Smart Fox on YouTube that you can try to fix your drain quickly without the need to unscrew it. What I love about this trick is that you don’t need to purchase or spend money on anything, all you’ve got to do is to go through your storage or toolbox and look for a spare zip tie or cable tie along with your favorite pair of scissors making sure that they’re sharp enough to cut through the tie.

Grab a long piece of zip or cable tie, then cut diagonally along the edges on both sides, and make sure to cut about a third of the whole zip or cable tie as shown in the video. Now that your cable ties have prongs on each side, shove it down the drain, then push and pull it with a back-and-forth motion, and then pull it out completely. Pick and remove all of the trapped hair and dirt on the edges, then repeat the same process as needed, and open the faucet to see if it’s running through properly.
