Are you washing your hands WRONG?

Do you know to properly wash your hands?  I thought I was washing mine the correct way, but according to this…I’m leaving out a few steps!  Check out all of these steps to washing your hands!

1.  Use soap and water, and rub your hands together like you normally would

2.  Keep scrubbing, but interlock your fingers.

3.  Rub one hand over the BACK of your other hand, and interlace your fingers while you do it.  So the fingers on one hand should be scrubbing between the fingers on your other one, from the back.  Then repeat it with the other hand.

4.  Cup your hands . . . hook them together . . . and twist them from side to side.  You kind of have to see it to get it, but basically the palms of your hands are scrubbing the backs of your fingers.

5.  Interlock the webbing between your thumbs, like you’re trying to shake hands with yourself.  Then scrub like that for a few seconds.  Focus on one thumb area first, then do it to your other hand.

6.  And finally, use the tips of your fingers to scrub the palm of your other hand.  Then rinse.  (Here’s a video.)
