I am so frustrated with zipper pulls on jeans ruining my manicure!  I also don't want to repaint those chips constantly.

 

I found these zipper pulls on amazon.  If you don't wear your tops tight it won't show or it can be tucked under.

I got all black.

I'm not sure how these work exactly, but in a pinch I've always just opened a paperclip and slipped an edge through a zipper pull ... and pulled.

I can't live w/o those kind of zipper pulls with my messed up hands. They are lifesavers for me.

 

This is how you loop them:

I use them on casual jackets that don't come with their own long pull and on the pocket zippers on my running pants.

Just pull the cord part through the large hole in the zipper pull.  Then put the "handle" through the loop you just pulled through.

 

Look up how to do a "slip knot".
