Use a plunger

A plunger is the simplest and the most effective method of removing a blocked sink. Make sure the plunger covers the entire plughole tightly, and then pump it up and down several times. This creates a vacuum that will help to dislodge the blockage. Once the blockage is removed, flush the sink with hot water to ensure that everything flows smoothly.

Use baking soda and vinegar

Baking soda and vinegar are an effective combination to remove a blocked sink. First, pour a cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by a cup of vinegar. Leave it for about 10 minutes and then pour hot water down the drain to flush out the blockage.

Use a drain snake

A drain snake is a flexible wire with a handle that can be inserted into the pipe to remove the blockage. Insert the drain snake into the pipe and twist it until it reaches the blockage. Then slowly pull the snake out, and the blockage will come out with it.
