Dog hair clinging to your car parts, especially the seating area can be indelible in most cases. Preventing your dog from getting in the car in the first place is the best way to avoid having to clean dog hair from the car. The slender hair gets easily stuck to the cushion when the dog plunges onto the seat. 

Removing hair can be done by brushing your dog outside, using a car seat cover, or using a pet hair remover brush before getting in the car. Rubber gloves can be used to lift pet fur from car upholstery, by wetting the glove surface and applying a mist of fabric softener. Duct tape can also be used to pick up pet hair from car upholstery. A lint roller, wet sponge, squeegee, pet hair remover brush, and carpet rake can also be used to remove dog hair from your car. 

Though hair removal procedures I would mention in the further parts are not infallible precisely, they can certainly help to a great extent.  

Below listed are a few ways to remove dog hair from your car:

1. Use Vacuum Cleaner

Vacuuming is an effective way to remove dog hair from your car. A cordless vacuum cleaner that comes with a variety of detachable spares or attachments to vacuum in small places would be beneficial to remove the tiny and thin hair of your furry pet. Vacuum cleaners with powerful suction capacity would be helpful compared to the regular ones used to clean homes. Versatile cleaners can be employed to remove dog hair from your car. 

2. Use Lint Roller

A lint roller is a roll of single-sided adhesive paper either on a cardboard or a plastic barrel that is mounted on a central spindle, with an attached handle to hold and roll. The usage of a lint roller is quite obvious and easy for almost any age group. Getting dog hair out of your car can be done with the help of a lint roller.  Start by rolling the lint roller over the surface of the car seat or carpet. This will help to pick up any loose hair. Use the roller in a back-and-forth motion to ensure that all the hairs are picked up. Once the roller is full, remove the lint and dispose of it. Repeat the process until all the hairs have been removed.

3. Groom Your Pet Frequently  

Pet grooming has benefits ranging from my hygiene to keeping your home and car free from hair strands. Brush your pet regularly. Brushing your pet's fur will help to remove loose hair and reduce the amount of hair that gets into your car. Giving your pet a hair chop periodically is a sign of healthy grooming and can reduce long hair sticking to your hair to a considerable extent. 

4. Don’t Forget To Use Seat Covers  

Car seat covers are a great way to protect your car from dog hair. They are designed to be easy to install and remove, and they can be washed easily in the washing machine. Look for covers that are made of a material that is easy to clean and won't trap pet hair to have a clean and hairless car.

5. Use Wet Rubber Gloves

Investing in a pair of comfortable rubber gloves to rid of dog hair is a thoughtful act. Simply dampen your rubber gloves once you put them on and rub them on the interior surfaces of your car. The static energy created due to the rubbing removes tiny lint particles or pet hair to a visible extent and this method is pretty beneficial in removing dog hair from your car.

6. Use Blown Up Balloons Over the Seats

This is one of the logical methods like the previous one is rolling blown-up balloons over the seats of your car to remove dog hair. The static electric charge enables the removal of tiny strands of dog hair stuck to your car's seat easily and cost-effectively.

7. Use Fabric Softener Spray Mixed With Water

A fabric softener spray mixed with water can be used to remove dog hair from the car. To make the fabric softener spray, mix a couple of tablespoons of fabric softener with water in a spray bottle. Then, apply the mixture onto paper towels and use them to wipe up the dog's hair. The loosened hairs can be vacuumed or simply brushed off when the solution dries. Alternatively, you can make a solution of a 7-part fabric softener to 1-part water and spray it onto the car's interior. This will help loosen the pet hair, which can then be vacuumed or brushed off.

8. Duct Tape is Another Option

Duct tape is a cheap and effective method to remove dog hair from your car. Wrap some duct tape around your hand with the sticky side facing outwards. And press the duct tape against your car seat and lift it to remove dust and strands of dog hair from your car. This method might be time-consuming but is generally effective in removing dog hair.

9. Use a Wire Brush

A wire brush, like any ordinary brush, has hair but on both the dorsal and ventral sides to perform the job better. Brushing your car interiors with the wire brush can brush away dog hair to a visible extent. On the seats, it's recommended not to give a rough brush if your wire brush has rough hair because it could damage your seat or the seat cover. 

10. Hire a Professional Cleaner

With a lack of time or resources to remove dog hair from your car, the last option would be to hire a professional cleaner to do your dirty work. A professional cleaner would do a better job in clearing all the hair remains of your animal rather than using all the equipment and investing time for them. At times the equipment we use won't suffice to remove all the hair but a professional cleaner would be able to get to places we cannot. 

Conclusion 

In summary, cleaning dog hair from your car can be a tedious procedure but there are several do-it-yourself ways that you can employ rather than investing in a professional cleaning service. Avoiding pets in your vehicle is the prime solution to prevent dog hair stuck all over the interiors of your vehicle. But if you insist on having a pet in your car, it comes with challenges, and cleaning your car using the above-mentioned methods is one of them.
