One option is that you could create a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. You will need one cup of the hydrogen peroxide and a spoonful of baking soda. This particular mixture is powerful because it creates a chemical reaction in your drain. In fact, you will likely hear and see it fizzling. Next thing you know, your drain will be unplugged.

The next way to unplug your drain is a little unorthodox, but it’s very effective. Many plumbers will use a drain snake to reach in the drain and physically remove any debris. However, you don’t need one of these fancy tools. Instead, take a coat hanger and straighten it all out except for one hooked end.
