Forget hair stuck in the plughole, one of the biggest cleaning annoyances for anyone with long hair is when it gets trapped in your vacuum.

The roller part of the cleaner can easily get clogged with long hairs, reducing the efficacy of your vacuum and meaning the roller gets stuck as you push it around the house.

One cleaning influencer has given us her top tip to stop the clog, though, and the best part is, it costs less than a pound.

Mrs D’s Cleaning Reviews, whose real name is Kelly, shared the hack on her Instagram page, where her 28,000 followers keep up to date with product reviews and handy tricks.

Kelly says that, although there are a number of products on the market specifically designed to get rid of the built-up hair in a vacuum, they can be expensive.

Instead, she uses a product designed for tailors which she bought from Home Bargains for 59p – a stitch picker.

In a video on her page, Kelly calls her own bristle roller ‘disgraceful’, but says that it’s a predicament many people will find themselves in.

While some people may use scissors or a knife, this can be dangerous and damage the bristles in the cleaner too.

All you need to do with the small stitch picker is run it through the hair facing away from you, and it should cut through the clogged up strands.

From there, simply pluck the hair out the bristles, and your vacuum will look as good as new.

Kelly says on her post, ‘The stitch picker glides through the tangled hair so easy, and it’s the only thing I will use to remove the hair from my vacuum roller.’

Her fans clearly agree, as the series of videos have racked up hundreds of likes.

Commenters have raved about the tip, with one saying, ‘This is genius. I have so many of these little tools in my sewing kit and long hair is the bain of my life.’

Another said ‘Such a clever tip. Would never have thought of this.’

So, rather than throwing away the whole vacuum or cutting your hand, you can get it working like it was always supposed to.
