I'm from Afghanistan so needless to say, I've got a lot of hair. Thick and lots of it, length almost to my elbows .... My stylist says it's, "industrial strength", lol.This thing is a must for anyone in my category of hair! No need to try to salvage the loose handfuls of shedded hair while washing it (let's be honest here, ladies with lots of it know what I mean)... No need to call the apartment maintenance man or woman in, almost weekly. Or DIY, for the brave (definitely a nasty job when coming back up, blech!), to stop the slow or clogged drain that nastily causes water over the toes... Okay, TMI, just sayin...This works and it saves time in the shower and out! Some of the reviews I initially read here made me wonder (Whoa?!)... After your shower, you just pick it up and (You can use a tissue or paper towel if you prefer... I'm washable, so I'm not too germ-a-phobe to touch my own, just washed, hair.), it's a flexible rubbery material, with a loop in the center you can grab it by... You can flip it inside out and then grab the hair in one sweep. Trash. Done.I've used the ones at the pharmacy type stores that sell for around $1.99 and they don't really work. Any amount of hair doesn't allow water thru and you've gotta pick it up and grab the hair off every few minutes and by that time it's barely effective.This works because the little rubber spikes grab the hair before hitting the center where water goes thru. I clear mine after or before every shower but could probably go longer. It just seems gross to me to leave it longer than one shower. If I do forget it, my husband removes the thing altogether because, of course, he doesn't wanna look at a hair ball, lol. Thankfully, you can actually grab it by the loop with your toe, haha..You do have to remove the drain part itself when using this but for me, it's worth it. If I want to take a bath, that part stays near by under our bathroom sink.Effective, four dollar, time-saver. I wash it every time I clean the tub and it stays white. No mold or mildew issues. We've been using the one we have for around ten months and it looks the same as when I bought it.Tempted to buy a couple more in case they ever get discontinued... It's a flawless design, in my opinion. I've shown it to family members who've immediately requested I order them one also. Smile.If you're purposely looking for an item such as this one, you've searched long enough. Do it! : ) Hope this helps!

Works great in our 1940's tub to keep these old pipes clear. Easy to clean, and will save us from lots of future plumber problems, I'm sure!

I live in a circa 1929 historic condo building and hair slipping down the shower drain has created plumbing issues many times. My shower drain is near the center of my small sized tiled shower floor. I searched for "many" different versions of hair drain catchers and found most were better suited for tubs and/or shower floors not tiled with a slight slope around the drain. This product is not the prettiest (guess a girl can't have it all!) It is made of a white rubber'ish material that is flexible enough to fit snugly around my uneven floor surrounding the drain.The good - it catches ALOT of hair (!) and I doubt seriously any strands slip through. It is easy enough to clean provided it is allowed to fully dry. Price is very affordable.The bad - it gets backed up easily with use of my shower gel which gets quite foamy. I typically knock it aside when using my shower gel and replace it when washing my hair. It doesn't get backed up with foam created with my Aveda shampoo, conditioner, bar soap or shaving cream.In the end, this product serves its purpose well and is saving me $$'s in plumbing repairs.

This review is for Danco Bathtub Drain Hair Catcher Snare and Strainer, White, 1-Pack (10306).First, the Pros:The product is effective at its purpose, which is to keep your tub or shower drain hair-free. The holes are large enough to let water drain (granting you consistently remove the hair - leaving the hair in the trap will prevent drainage just as it would if you allowed it to enter and clog the drain, obviously), but not so large as to allow hair to get through. Additionally, the barbs on the surface of the trap are an ingenious way to further ensure that hair does not sneak through any holes. This is probably the most effective trap I have used.The product is very easy to install. I like the handle - it makes it extremely easy to pick up, hold onto, etc.The Cons:The material is flimsy, and the edges will curl up a bit. However, I manage to suction them back to the tub well enough to maintain the effectiveness of the trap.Like pretty much any other drain trap, you need to remember to remove the trap from the drain between uses, and clean it regularly with a normal bathroom cleaning product, otherwise the underside is likely to get mildew or mold, and so is the inside of your drain.It's very easy to remove the hair; I'm not sure what the contrary reviews are doing that's making it so difficult. Do it when the hair is still wet, or do it when the hair is dry; either way, I have never had a problem, and my hair is roughly 1.5 feet long.My trap became discolored almost immediately. I live in a 130+ year-old house with moisture and mildew issues, so that's my disclaimer, but normally after I scrub the tub, it takes at least 5 days for the hints of orange mildew to appear again. This trap turned yellow after maybe 3 showers. No idea why, but it is rather unsightly even when there is no hair in it.Those are all pretty minor issues. My biggest issue with this drain trap is that its effectiveness makes it almost impossible to scrub clean. Since I have such a bad mildew problem, I need to clean everything in the bathroom once a week, lest it become orange and slimy. I try to clean this trap every other day (remove the hair, spray with cleaner, scrub the top and bottom), but it absolutely destroys my sponges with its barbs, and is much too flimsy to clean with a scrubbing brush... which means that I can never really get it clean.If I could find a drain hair trap as effective as this one, but a nice grey color, and easy to clean with a sponge or brush, I doubt I would ever use anything else again.

We have a shower and bath combo and it works great, there is no suction to the drain it just sits in the drain and stays very well, easy to use and empty. It does protect the drain very well also!

My son in the USA recommended this. It works well for his family. They must have a deeper plughole in their bath.

Works well in the shower to catch hair and prevent it from going down the drain. Much easier to clean than having to pull a disgusting mess out of the shower drain. Easy to clean. The only downside is that I can’t have it in the drain at the same time as the bathtub plug

Atrapa muy bien los cabellos en la regadera y no es molesto a la hora de bañarse.
