You may wish to use a cheap thin washable pre-filter either way. It will catch a lot of the hair before it hits the fine filtration, which you can then just wash off the pre-filter, making it easier and cheaper to maintain.

Do you have a link to one of the cheap thin washable pre-filters that I can look at as a reference for what to buy?
