# How to Get Human Hair Cleaned Out of a Washing Machine
Like any other appliance or household surface, your washing machine needs regular cleaning to maintain performance and prevent clothes from becoming dirty. Hair that's stuck to clothing and blankets often comes off during the wash and rinse cycle. Over time, this can build up to clog holes in the wash basin and the wash machine filters. You can remove human hair, as well as pet hair, from your washing machine with simple supplies to keep it clean and running efficiently.
