How to stop a shower curtain clinging?

Does anyone know how to stop a polyester shower curtain sticking to you and wrapping you up in it!
It is driving me mad - dont want to fork out for a glass rigid one as we are doing the bathroom up shortly (not long moved in).

In my curtain there is weights in the hem so maybe you could get some from a market stall selling trimings and stich them on. Good Luck0

if you have a curtain pole down the length of the bath you could move the pole away from the bath (say 100mm) instead of it being directly above the edge of the bath. this gives you more room (above knee height) and the weight of the curtain will pull itself tight to the inner edge of the bath at the bottom of the curtain. i did this myself at my previous house before i got to the stage of ripping it down in anger!Cash ISA rate 6.5% fixed for 2 years.

Put a few little fishing weights in the hem.Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in.

If you hold the outside of the curtain (The bit below the top of the bath) under the shower to get it wet, it will then cling to the bath instead of you. 0

I tried that and it didn't work for me. It is not a case of the curtain simply clinging because its wet. I have noticed that when you switch some shows on the curtain sucks inwards because as partial vacuum has been created.djohn2002uk wrote:If you hold the outside of the curtain (The bit below the top of the bath) under the shower to get it wet, it will then cling to the bath instead of you.Cash ISA rate 6.5% fixed for 2 years.

I think the weights tip is a good one, I was going to buy a wider bath but now I won't bother.
