My bathtub became clogged recently probably due to hairs. It took a long time for the water to drain after shower. Any comment will be appreciated.

Pull all of the hair out.
Use DrainCare drain cleaner to dissolve residue. Follow directions.
DrainCare is an enzymne-based cleaner for sluggish drains.
Good Luck!

This recently happened to us. After pouring a whole bottle of Liquid Plumber down the drain to no avail, we unscrewed the drain trap cover (in the front of the tub), and pulled hairballs out through there. If drain cleaner doesn't work try that. Good luck!
