A hair dresser recommended using a cheap denture brush to clean brushes and combs. It really works wonders especially on those brushes with the plastic bristles with round tips. In addition, spray the Dawn powerwash directly on the bristles and let it soak in for a few minutes before putting them in warm water. It really helps to breakdown all the oil and product buildup at the base of the bristles.

[@AndreaJean]

Great tip!

[@1ronmad1n]

I’ve been a stylist for well over 30 years. On those combs, after soaking, you can just take a towel and hold the comb in one hand and take the towel and wipe from the base of the teeth out to the tips. Concentrate on holding it firmly while pulling out. Then go through to get anything left over.

[@missclimpson]

Soak in a solution of ammonia or washing soda.

[@reneewhittinghill3440]

If your drains are mostly clogged with hair, our cleaning lady uses Clorox drain sticks... 2 pack for $4. They are long enough to get to the P-trap in the sink or shower and no removal of drain plugs. How did I not know about these? I have crawled under the sink to remove the P-trap on every sink I've owned.

[@tracyjohnson5023]

I spray easy off no fume on at night then wet a rag the next morning and pretty much everything wipes off with no scrubbing.

[@betsybreidenbach3778]

I soak my comb & brushes in the sink with hot water. I use a hair brush to clean my combs. 👍🙂😊

Dollar Tree has a gadget called a ‘Zip-It’. That works great for getting further down the pipe. Don’t worry, it produces a lot of ‘gross’ too, so it’s satisfying! LoL

[@1rosabonita]

[@dignit1620]

I have about 20 white towels that I use to blot the stains with. I keep blotting with dry towels until my towels comes up clean. I also use water and white vinegar with the towels and just keep blotting moving to a clean area on the rag. This worked great on nail polish on a bedroom rug.

Child sized tooth brushes work really well to get between the bristles of hair brushes to scrub them clean once the hair is out. This also works to scrub combs clean too.

You should have just put the Dawn power wash down the hole, you would not have had to do anything else. And I would have spray it directly on the piece. Its amazing!!!

You can use a long plastic tool made to manual put down the drain to get the clog out

[@fillythrees3341]

I had one of those plastic tools and it doesn't do nearly as good a job as the little drain screen I use instead of a stopper. The barbs on those plastic tools are really wicked sharp, too!

I've been dealing with a slow drain for at least a year and tried pouring all the things down but knew I needed to take it apart. I went and did what you did and mine was WAY WORSE than what you pulled out of both of yours 🤢. I'm surprised any water was going down at all 😂

Andrea Jean, have you tried Joe Campanelli's stain remover on Amazon? As a former Folex fan and product user, I was turned onto Joe Campanelli's from a friend. I was sold the 1st time I used it! Also works well on laundry! Let me know if you end up trying it and what you think!

Now I am leaning towards an extraction appliance (I had been considering a wet/dry shop vac). I don't even have carpets! But it looks like it would be great on upholstery/linens and those are the bane of my existence with a kitty!

The Lemon Dawn Powerwash is my favorite!

[@dianeschenkelberg8270]

I purchased a brush-cleaning tool from the Big "A". It was $10 and works like a charm and use it each time I brush my hair. I soak my combs and brushes in ammonia. It loosens all the gunk. Let it sit for an hour, swish the comb/brush around and rinse with water. Done!

[@jessicaquiroz7178]

What do you recommend using to clean a convention countertop toaster oven ?

[@sharonsears4596]

I had printer ink that spilled onto the carpet and it sat on it for weeks. I used Folex for the first time and was amaized. It said to spray and then use paper towels and pat it and the ink soaked into the paper towels so I kept getting another paper towel until it soaked up every bit of the printer ink. No hint of the black left on the carpet. It worked like magic.

Did you not know that most oven doors can be removed from the hinges so you can reach the back of the oven to clean??? Open the door to the first "stop" in the hinges, somewhat of a venting position, where it is only open an inch or so and pull straight up on the door, using both hands on the sides of the door. It should slide off the hinges easily...then you can clean the door separately and simply slide it back on the hinges when done.

I have long hair and, since I brush and style my hair over the sink, for YEARS I was having to do what she's doing in this video at least every other month! It's a gross job and a bit of a pain to do. When my drain would slow down and there was even a hint of odor coming from the drain, that was my cue it was time to clean it out again. I even bought one of those long, barbed plastic sticks that are supposed to get hair out of your drain, but it didn't work very well. One day while shopping, I found a set of those little drain-shaped screens that had a screen that fit my bathroom sink drain, so took out the stopper and stored it, and put the screen in the drain. It's been FABULOUS!! I never have to do what she's doing, never have to undo the trap and clean it out, and I never have any kind of drain slow-down or odor coming from the drain! The screen catches everything, even when I give myself a haircut. I do have to give the screen a quick rinse after brushing my teeth because the toothpaste foam is too thick to rinse off by itself, but it only takes a second or two to do and it beats having to clean the stopper, the drain, and/or the trap. The set of screens also had one the perfect size for my kitchen sink and I use it all the time.
