Which hand do you glove first?

Post by MedicalGloveLover »

I'm curious to see which hand gets gloved first more than the other.

For me, if I'm thinking about it, I glove my left hand first. If I'm not thinking about it, I glove my right hand first.

I wonder if the dominant hand plays a roll in which hand gets gloved first.

Yeah, I don't normally think about which one I put on regularly. Just earlier, I did note down though that I put on my left-hand glove first, which does happen to be my dominant hand. That said though, if I'm getting new gloves that don't really give much in terms of stretch, I'll put the left-hand glove on first, as I've become aware that my left hand is ever so slightly larger than my right, so if the pair fits my left hand, I know that it will fit my right as well. Maybe the size difference is due to hand dominance again? Not sure; but giving my two cents anyway!

I almost always glove my right hand first. I don't know why. My guess is because it's my dominant hand. But I have noticed that my left hand is bigger. So if I know the gloves are going to be super tight, I do my left hand first so that I can use my skin to better grip the glove as I try to pull it onto my left hand.

I have voted "left" but at the mean time I have mentioned, that I didn´t think about and every time it changes. Somes I start with left hand and the other time with the right hand.

10 out of 10 times I glove my right hand first but when it comes to taking them off , left hand first in this case.

I never really thought about which one I put on first. Maybe it would be which ever I took off last and how ever I put them away . I'm going to try and pay attention to which hand . By the way I'm left handed

I don't normally think about it, but right hand most often as that is the hand I wear my watch on.

I usually put my right glove on first, and I usually take my left off first .
