Too Short to Get Your Head Into the Bowl?

My mother seemed to be getting shorter and shorter. Then one day, she could no longer get her head down into the hair bowl at the hairdresser to wash her hair.

Rx: We started scrubbing her head prior to the trip to her hair appointments for the shampoo/set. Now we merely do the set.

This helped to avoid that awkward and uncomfortable, scrunching, pushing, and pulling to get her head washed and the ensuing puddle of water on the floor.

Next -- the lost art of teasing.
