Easy Pick Up Shampoo Bottles

Use smaller lighter bottles.

Reach Your Toes

Tightly wrap a wash cloth around a dowel or yardstick using rubber bands or duct tape to wash between your toes.

Easily Reach Feet and Legs To Wash

Use kitchen tongs to hold a sponge to wash feet and legs.

Easy Shampoo Dispenser
