Try 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1/2 cup of white vinegar pour it down the drain it will make a lot of fiss this is normal. do this on a monthly basis to keep them clean. if this dosent work it probably is hair and you should try to plunge it.

If it's got so bad that it's always clogging up you may need to take the U bend off and clean it thoroughly.
Keep it clean by tipping vinegar and/or baking soda down the drain. Leave it for a few minutes and then rinse through with water.
Washing soda is also invaluable too. Just shake some down the plug hole. It will dissolve some sludge - but not trapped hair.
All these methods are environmentally friendly, unlike using bleach.

ok, when the water is as drained out of the sink as possible, pour straight bleach into the drain, do not dilute it. Let it sit and that usually does the trick. Whenever we have something going on with the drain that nothing will fix, I do this- so far this has worked when everything else hasn't.

The clog is probably hair. Use the toilet plunger. put water in the sink and plunge the hair. If it doesn't come up. it will unwrap itself and go down the drain. Don't tell anyone about the plunger. It will be a secret

Try equal parts vinegar and baking soda. Let work about 20 minutes and follow with a kettle full of boiling water.

We usually get Liquid Plumber here. But I will pour baking soda and vinegar down the drain at times as a sort of maintnance measure, if the clog isn't too bad.
