Vacuum with an upholstery attachment

Attach the upholstery tool to your vacuum and run it over furniture surfaces using slow, overlapping strokes. This removes both surface hair and hair embedded in fabric weave. Vacuum cushions, armrests, and the crevices where hair accumulates most.

Why It Works

Upholstery attachments have a wide, flat nozzle designed to maintain contact with fabric surfaces. The suction pulls hair out of the weave more effectively than wiping methods, making this the best approach for deeply embedded pet hair.

Tips

• Vacuum furniture weekly if you have shedding pets to prevent buildup
• Use the crevice tool for seams, tufting, and gaps between cushions
• For heavy shedding, lightly dampen the fabric first to loosen hair before vacuuming
