Is there an easy way to take care of hair getting wound around the vaccum spool?

I have very long and thick hair and anyone else with it will vouch that there is lots of shedding. I vaccum about every other day and every time I look at the spool underneath all my hair is wrapped around it in a big knot. I usually have to resort to sccissors to get it out. Is there an easier way? I have a Dyson and I spent too much to have my hair break the darn thing! Thanks!

I have the same problem with my wife's hair. But sorry to say hon, there is no real easier way of taking care of this. Except I use a utility knife or razor blade. But its still the same, hair on the roller brush, gotta cut it out, etc... Just make it part of a continuous action plan that you do after you vacuum.

We had a problem at our old house with the carpet clogging up the hose after every couple weeks of vacuuming. And this was with my old vacuum I got from my parents that cost them like $2000 15 years ago. So, I totally didnt wanna ruin this one.

But like getting yer oil changed in yer car, drinking water, washing dishes, its just something you gotta do.

I know about shedding, plus I have a very hairy golden retriever! It takes a little extra effort, but your vacuum will thank you for it, I quickly sweep the rugs with a broom, balling up the hair before I vacuum...long live long hair!!!
