Hygiene

Are there any parents out there struggling with their kids personal hygiene on a massive scale? Please no judgement as I've been trying My best but my girl hasn't let me touch her hair beyond a quick tie up in 3 months, it's fine and curly and now it's just a big matted mess on her head. I just can't convince her to try and sort it out, which means cutting it is off the cards right now too. She's pda too.

Hygiene in general is hard, we've got several different toothbrushes, bath toys, toothpastes, hair brushes. I've tried many different ways- from wipes and mouthwash to fun baths, hair brushing in front of the tv, outside in the sun, to quick bath or shower. She feels a lot of shame around her hair now, as her friends all seem to be on top of it. I've tried taking the pressure off, having salon days as a household, tried to span the care across several days... Im exhausted and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
