How do I wash my moms hair?

She cant bend over the sink and can't climb the steps to shower.

I put my bil next to the sink-wrap towels around his shoulder-soak a rag not dripping and wet it,apply shampoo to hands like lotion and lather him up. Keep rinsing rag and his hair is as clean as can be. A treat for him is blow drying it.

he ,
jan's hubby has a flaky heart . he thinks i take him bratwursts because i like him . i absolutely do NOT . the sooner " art' s " heart blows , the sooner jan and i are goin bike riding .
his brats contain the excess fat from the other 60 brats that were baked down .

im not a nice person , its your issue if you ever momentarily thought as much ..

If she can't get to the shower how does she wash the rest of her body?

To go with Cap's idea, I seat my mom at the bathroom sink in her wheelchair and have her lean back hair salon style, they sell trays to help direct the water but I made my own from dollar store items.

There are also several variations of no rinse shampoos that are surprisingly effective, but I still think the occasional shampoo is needed. Perhaps use the no rinse shampoo and take her out periodically for a shampoo and cut?

if she can lay her head " back " over a kitchen sink , there you go . i say this because i just visited my ex customer / hair stylist , and she can wash your hair in about 2 minutes if you lay your head back at her basin .
its like waterboarding but with more boob in the face .
i only go there once a year but by the time i do , i am stoked .

h#ll yea !!
