That’s a good question. Here’s our official answer from the FAQ:
You don’t need two bands, but having bands on each hand increases the efficacy of alerting you whenever you touch your face. Putting one band on your dominant hand will alert when that one hand touches your face, which is more effective than no alerting.
In my experience using our similar product for nail biting, one bracelet is more than half as effective than two bracelets. There are two reasons for this. The first is that putting a bracelet on my dominant hand catches more than half of face touches. But more importantly, the device is designed around the idea of awareness. In my personal experience, awareness of nail biting with my right hand generalizes (substantially, though not completely) to my left hand.
Nice! I hadn’t heard of your product till now, and I immediately bought it upon seeing this post & your website. I hope it works :P
I hope so too! Stay sanitary!
Let my team know when one of us expressed an interest in reducing face touching.
This is awesome. Keep fighting the good fight.
Sold out on the website. Any ideas where else to get one?
Otherwise I guess masks are a decent substitute (they don’t need to be P95 for this purpose...)
We expect to have more in about a month.
We started shipping the earliest orders yesterday. If an order is placed today, we expect to ship on April 6, 2020.
Cool idea! Do you need one for each hand to make it effective?
