I have very long hair. I have difficulty washing it. I cannot put a rubber band on it, my fingers don't maneuver right.

BB - I understand your distress. I have long hair and long beard. My right hand is opposed to doing any serious work. I trust you and I will get by somehow and find a solution.

Is cutting your hair into an easy to manage style out of the question? I assume you like your hair long, but, sometimes, we just need to make life easier for ourselves.

If you have a nearby hair salon maybe talk to somebody there. Explain your situation they may be willing to assist you somehow .

I think the key is to not stress yourself out if at all possible. I try to simply my life all around - stopped dyeing my hair and wear it really short now. Phasing out of buckles, buttons, and zippers little by little, and really cut down on fancy shoes of any height. On the other hand, I tell myself to do as much as I can even if it takes much longer. I try to stay calm and unhurried, and go through the processes whatever it may be, and consider the motion as part of exercising my dexterity, muscles, and try to do things in a meditative manner. You should see my dog - she is so patient as she waits on me to get dressed, put on my shoes and brush my teeth before taking her out. Hope this helps and I don't sound like I'm full of baloney - which sometimes I am!

scrunchies? better for your hair than rubber bands and available in most stores that have hair supplies.

I gave up long hair and it seems to get shorter all the time. I find that it is one thing that I can let go of to help with time getting ready in the morning. I agree with allnatural that you need to find ways to decrease stress....and for me it was to decrease tresses! I will say that I get lots of compliments on my short do and I make sure to wear fun earrings and I am also a red lipstick gal.
