Hair! That's your problem, and it's the nastiest most slimy mess you can imagine. Some drain liquids will so something to dissolve hair, but, and I hate to advise this, you have to unscrew the lever you use to plug the tub if you wish to fill it. Be very carefull not to let the little bolts fall down the drain. Then work the drain plug assembly up and out through the hole where the lever plate was. Do this before you eat.
Clean the thing off and take a plunger to the drain while someone holds a wet towel against the drain lever hole. Then use your draino or whatever. It's a mess, but ya only gotta do it once every five years or so under normal usage.
Better idea is have dad do this for ya.
