Are you still using your festival wristbands? Then you must read this.

Keeping the wristbands on your arms after a festival is a very popular way to show everyone where you have been and is a way to keep your festival memories close. But there is a dark side for this option. 

 

According to a study conducted by the Universidade de Surrey, in England, if you keep your festival they can be harmful for our health. The study shows that the wristbands gather thousands of bacteria, in two years. 

The best solution to keep your memories is to take them out and colect them in boxes, sew them to a garment or to your hat, use them to decorate your christmas tree or even make a festival wristband lampshade.

If you realy want to keep them in your wrist you must find a way to be able to take them out and put them again, to avoid having a bacteria nest on your body. 

 

This video will show you images of the bacteria on your wristbands. You won't believe it!
