Mrs Hinch fan lifts the lid on 59p trick to make carpets look brand new

A simple cleaning hack left one mum shocked at the quantity of hair hiding in her carpets.

Posting on the Hinch Army Cleaning Tips Facebook page , Manda Good said her carpet had lost its shine, despite how often she would use the Hoover.

But a 59p cleaning trick sorted it right out - once a giant hairball had been removed, the Mirror reports.

"You lovely Hinchers have done it again. I have a lovely silver grey carpet which lately has become a bit dull and I’m always hoovering but it had lost its lovely look," Manda wrote.

"I saw the post about trapped hair and how hoovering doesn’t get it out. So I bought a squeegee for 59p and gave it a go."

The results were impressive.

"This is my daughter's bedroom carpet. She has very long hair. I was totally shocked at how much came up and a bit disgusted to be honest," Manda wrote.

"My carpet now looks brand new again! If you haven’t tried it yet do it!"

Hundreds of other Mrs Hinch fans were blown away by the tip.

One wrote: "I do this every week now. Amazing how much hair and dust comes up. Only thing is my squeegee doesn't last long."

Another added: "I do my stairs often and the amount that comes off is crazy!"

Some who had tested the tip even came up with suggestions to make the job easier.

"You can get a rubber brush (Home Bargains) which makes the job much easier," one person wrote.

Another added: "I've also got a hideous pair of rubber sliders that are used specifically for this. They clean the carpet and it's a work out to boot."
