Welcome to Chiara’s one handed life
My name is Chiara, I have acquired right hand side hemiplegia. In easy to understand language this means I have muscle weakness and paralysis on my right side. This is a result of a stroke I suffered at three years old due to the Chicken pox virus. I was initially unable to move but after 10 days walked out the hospital.
However, I never regained the use of my right arm and hand. This channel is about How I manage life one handed.

Cushion Hair Rollers with One Hand
Hi Welcome to Chiara's One-Handed Life
I thought today in this video, I would show you how I put in cushion hair rollers in my hair with one hand. This is the best way I found to do it with one hand and a they are comfy enough to sleep in and I found it works well and gives you a nice curl if you keep them in over night.
Some of you may struggle with this as Hemiplegia and cerebral palsy affects everybody differently. So don't be discouraged if you can't do it the first time I'm sure you will be able to find a way. I hope this helps and I Hope you enjoy the video.
Hope you enjoy the video.

Who do you zip up the zipper on jeans? I haven’t worn any in 10 years. I wear stretchy jeans! Could you show us the way you do it please? Thank you!!😊
Yes, I can show you how I do zips on jeans. I will do a video soon.
@@ChiarasOneHandedLife thank you so much. Look forward to it!!
I just wanted to say the companion video to this one on instagram is incredible. The end look is absolute fire 🔥 😍💣
Thank you 😊
Foam rollers...wow. I didn't know those were still being used. They make great curls. You go girl!!
Thank you I didn’t know they was still being used either until I tried them and they’re really good
Love it! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your video i also have a disabled leg i live with it also thank you .
I'm from Pakistan and watch your videos and reels also on Instagram. Really appreciate you ❣️ You are so special 🥰
hi didnt you have botox injection in your hand too try to relax it a little to allow you to use it? just wondering how that worked. thanks and have a good day from the USA
Hi thank you for your comment. Yes I do have Botox injections in my arm. I’ve been having since I was about 11 years old and they are to relax the muscles but they are not to regain movement. this is just to relax the muscles and to make my arm in a more comfortable position for me as my muscles are very tight in my arm. Hope you have a great day 😀
@@ChiarasOneHandedLife thank you so much for answering. are you close to having an injection?? it would be interesting to see what movement or control of your affected arm and hand before the injection and the after affect on hoe it relaxes the arm hand and fingers. thanks again 🙂
I have a similar situation with a left sided weakness. I would to see how you shave/put deodorant on Any tips for these situations I really appreciate your videos and have learned a lot from you and your videos
Hi there my name is Tom i live in London Ontario Canada
Chiara, is there a time of year that is worse for your condition? Thanks for educating me and others. 👍
Bags are my best friend when going upstairs to my room!
I always carry a trolley or a bag when I go shopping 😊
Genius! Thank you doing the Bobby pin.♥️♥️♥️♥️
Great job!👏 Thank you for the advice! I broke my arm, and your performance of making a bun using one hand is so useful!
I had a stroke. I am 42 yr old.
This is just what I need! I've been struggling my whole life unable to use my left arm and got depressed when I had to rely on people to do these tasks for me, such a massive help thankyou
You look so beautiful, I'm really glag to find your chanel. You are a good example of how with can live with a disability, but it doesn't mean that we don't care about beauty.
Thank you so much. I'll try to do it, I can't move my left hand due to a stroke that I suffered in my twenties, thirty seven years ago. I have learnt to do everything with my right hand, but I' not very skilful with my hair.
If you want to get completely cured free of cost by God just write to me. If you don't ignore it. Trust me once and see the difference
Hi!!! I have one hand and you help me so much!! I had brain surgery when I was 3 months old then I had another brain surgery when I was 2 ever since I can’t move my left arm and I had no clue how to do anything but I watch your videos and now I can put my hair up thank you!!!!!!
Thank you!! Ifractured my left arm and have very long hair. I'm having so much difficulty doing my hair in a ponytail (& bun). Thanks to you, I have hope of not being dependent on others. THANK YOU!!!!!
I saw ya iG page and just had to follow ya on CZcams great inspiration keep up the good work
Thank you for this video ❤ I’m currently dealing with nerve damage and have been really scared. I can’t lift my right arm and I really needed to see this video. Sending you many blessings!
My knee doesn't bbend when I walk either. I have left side hemiplegia due to stroke
Thank you
I'm always liking your videos. Great work making and editing.
Thank you so much 😃🎀
Great video Chiara, thank you! Would you mind sharing the name of the brush you use at the end of the video to curl your hair? It looks very useful and easy to use. Thank you so much in advance. Your hair's beautiful and you've got a wonderful energy, keep it up 👍
Thank you so much. The brush I use at the end is a round brush hairdryer. this is the name of the one I have. Revlon Salon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumiser hope it helps
Thank you so much, Chiara! Wishing you all the best! Keep on shining 🤗
Do you always use hair dye and hair straightener?
Hi, thank you for your comment. I do not use hair dye hair straighteners. In the video, I was washing my hair with shampoo and conditioner. And then I blow dry my hair and I always like to blow dry curly. I don’t really use straighteners.
So helpful, thank you! I’ve just taught myself how to do the hair wrap last week. My hand and arm get SO tired blow drying. I appreciate all your tips.
So glad it was helpful yeah my hand gets so tired blow drying too
Awe Bless you love ❤❤❤
Hello Chiara! You are beautiful,amazing and very inspiring. Your videos help me daily. Thank You and may God bless you. Lots of love darling!❤
Thanks for another great video xx
So glad you enjoyed it
Love all of your content 😎
Special lady, thank you! ✨
Chiara, did your right hand uncurl as you got older or was there physical therapy involved? Keep the videos coming.
Hi, thank you my hand uncurl because I had Botox injections placed around my wrist to help relax the muscles in my wrist as my muscles in my arm are quite tight so that's how my hand has uncurl. As the Botox injections wears off my hand does get tighter and will end up curling back. Hope this makes sense.
@@ChiarasOneHandedLife thank you.
Love you princess 👸 ❤️❤️❤️
Chiara...where have you been? I hope everything is well in your life.
omg thank you. I don't have dexterity difficulties(?) but I was using two hands trying to shove one side into the other and even on a loose item it was hard to get the button through. Putting your fingers through button hole helped SO MUCH!!!
I've just realized I use one hand (left) to do that, and I'm right handed. Same goes with working with many other small things where my right hand is only helping.
Thank you so much for this video. I can't wait to try this. I tried getting my guy to help, but he can't even do a clip. 😅
Chiara, Thank you you are a genius. I fractured my elbow 3 months ago and will probably never regain full functionality again. Following this technique I manage to put my necklace on so quickly.😊
Good job!
Thank you, this is super helpful!
I was 27 when I had my stroke. Unfortunately being so young with not as many externally obvious factors makes it hard, as people don’t understand and judge. Just because not everything’s visible doesn’t mean it’s not there.
