I just want to do 3 times my nose, once my face, 3 times right and left arm, and once my hair. My hair is problematic. But I guess you just have to wipe your head with water. But I read that all your hair has to be wet.. I thought then how do women do it then? Cause they have a lot of hair, and my relative does not wet her hair 100% she just wipes her hair with water.
I struggle with concentration in salah. I tend to rush in order to not get caught up in thoughts.
Please have a read of the below article which should help you with your OCD;

and [Allaah] has not laid upon you in religion any hardship” [al-Hajj 22:78]
“Allaah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you” [al-Baqarah 2:185]
Yes for women it is faraz to wipe the front (a third) of your head including the back of the neck and the back of the ears.
You don't need to wet all the hair on your head.
Maybe you are getting wudu confused with ghusul? For ghusul you need to wash every part of your body and ensure every single hair has been washed.
Am not sure if this is the case for men but definitely for women.
For concentration please read the below article;

May Allah swt remove the burden of these negative thoughts Ameen.
