How do I get hair off my carpet?


Question:I have really long hair (down to almost my butt) and my vac isn't picking it all up. Does my vacuum really suck or is hair just one of those things that is really hard to vacuum up?

Answers:
Get yourself some of those Swiffer Carpet Flick insert/refills. (Don't use them in the Carpet Flick itself) These are the absolute stickiest things out there. Much better than a lint roller. Just slide one of them (with the paper backing off) back and forth over the surface of your carpet/couch/ etc. Works with pet hair too.
This link shows you what they are...no need to buy on line...they're sold in every grocery store I've been to.

GOOD LUCK!
ps--I have cats and these work FABULOUS!!
No more hair on my couch! YAY!


bagless vacuums work really well, and yes, they usually do fairly well with hair.

as for ur question does ur vacuum really suck... no... cuz if it did, it would be a great vacuum.
lint roller
You know what works is a carpet cleaner machine. I have a hepa vacuum that works really well, but when I use my carpet cleaner machine its amazing the hair that comes up.
The problem is that your vacuum doesn't suck.

Hope it helps!
a plain old rubber glove works great. especially for pet hair. just put one on and use small sweeping motions and it will come right off!
