Vinegar, especially boiling vinegar, poured on top of baking soda, will clear any sink. It works really well if you can let it sit overnight, then pour really hot water down the drain the next morning.
Pour a half cup or more baking soda down the drain, followed by at least a cup of vinegar. Let it sit until it quit fizzing. Pour down about a gallon of boiling water and this should clear it up. If not, try again. If that fails, you may need to have it roto rootered as the clog may be too far down. Been there, done that! The clog was almost out of the house down in the basement and needed a plumber friend to do it with his really long snake. I hope this helps you!

Mix equal parts of vinegar and baking soda. One is an acid, the other a base, which will work together to unclog most.
Pour a half cup of Dawn dish soap and let it sit for a bit then pour boiling water down the drain. Should unclog it easily!
