Stop Shower Curtain From Billowing or Blowing in and clinging to you. UPDATED (July 2022)

Nothing worse than having a cold shower curtain press up against you in the warm shower. Various laws of physics cause this to happen. This video will show you how to install 2 hooks, shower curtain weights and use a retractable key holder to keep the shower curtain in place during your shower. Total cost is about $35.00 and takes less than 10 minutes to install.

You will be using hooks that stick to the sidewall and connect a Key-Bak retractable key holder reel to one end, then when you are in the shower and close the curtain you grab the split ring at the end of the reel cord, stretch it across the shower curtain and attach to the hook on the opposite sidewall.

The shower magnets listed below really add to the effect of making your shower larger by keeping the curtain back.

My shower was 48" wide, so if you have a wider shower like a 60" I suggest using 2 Retractable Key Holder listed below and mount each reel to the sidewall of the shower and connect the 2 split rings at the end of the reels once you are in the shower using a mini carabiner like this one:

Shower Curtain Magnets (Note: These are the replacement for the 1st magnets I used) These are far superior and are completely encased in silicone and are a much more powerful magnet. I used a set of 4 for a 48" wide opening and the 71" wide curtain listed below.

Other Items if you need them:

Shower Curtain - (Note: This curtain has performed well and has been washed 4 times so far in the washing machine. DO NOT use chlorine bleach. I used Oxi-Clean non-chlorine bleach powder. Pink mildew loves the shower environment and the bottom 4" of the curtain is its favorite habitat. I suggest soaking the bottom 4"-6" of the curtain in White Distilled Vinegar prior to washing. I used a large plastic beer mug and put the bottom of the curtain inside and placed in the sink then poured the vinegar in and let set for 20 minutes. Rinsed with water then ran through the washing machine.

Installation Instructions: Select a spot on each side of shower wall adjacent to the edge of the curtain, about halfway from the top and bottom of curtain or about waist high. Follow the directions included with 3M Command Hooks. Be sure to install the hook facing up.
Attach the shower curtain magnets evenly along the bottom of the curtain.
Using the belt clip on the back of the Key-Bak hang it from the hook on the opposite side of the shower valve wall.

Thats it! Once you step into the shower just pull the ring on the Key-Bak cord and attach it to the hook on the other side!

Enjoy all the extra space in your shower and no cold, clingy curtain.
