Here are 5 things you need to know about personal hygiene
Hand Care
Hands are the most interactive part of your body. In most cultures, people shake hands as a gesture of friendliness when they meet, hence it is very important to keep your hands clean all the time so that you can avoid transferring germs and viruses to other people.
Use an antibacterial soap to wash hands, wash hands before and after taking your regular meals, you can also use a waterless hand wash during work hours to stay more careful and hygienic. After sanitizing your hands, you may use hand cream to prevent dryness.
Try not to touch railings and commercial fences in public areas as they might contain germs due to frequent touch.
Hair Care
Hairs can make or break your appearance. Although hairs are not a very interactive part of your body, no one likes the person who scratches their head too often. Not washing your hair can make them greasy and if you do not take care of your hair, you might catch lice and become uncomfortable.
Wash your hair thoroughly and make sure you use a shampoo to remove dirt and grease properly. If you want to make your hair look proper make sure to use a conditioner and hair serum afterward.
Body Care
You should take regular baths to purge your body of any germs or ringworms. Going swimming or taking a bath does not provide the required purity for remaining healthy. To avoid health risks at any cost, take showers so that the germs on your body can be washed away with the flowing water.
If you are taking a bath use soap that has anti-bacterial properties and for a better smell you can use scented body wash or bath bomb.
Teeth Care
Your smile is your most precious treasure, they say. Cleaning your teeth at least three times a day can help improve your smile and prevent you from many potential diseases, it can also lower the risk of heart diseases.
Nail Care

You must clip your nails weekly or when they grow long. Also, wash under your nails if they are grown to guarantee health.
