CAN YOU

FLUSH HAIR

DOWN THE

TOILET

No. Do not run the risk of blockage or the awkward conversations you might have to have with members of your household or a plumber. Depending on the mass of hair you’re getting rid of, there’s chance of the flush backfiring. 

Hair can clog your toilet, sink or shower drain. During the shower, multiple strands of hair slip down the drain, and they are unable to make their way to the sewer pipes. 

Turn the kettle on and bring it to a boil.

Pour about a half cup of dish soap into the toilet. It doesn’t matter what kind. If you don’t have dish soap try shampoo or body wash.

Let the dish soap do it’s thing for about 20 minutes..

Make sure the water is not boiling, just super hot and pour it down the toilet.

At this point the water in the toilet may have gone down. If so try flushing again. If the toilet is still clogged repeat the previous steps by adding more soap and more hot water.
