It's hard to say when the day will come that we're all used to wearing face masks, but based on my experience, we're not there yet. They can be very awkward
and uncomfortable, but they're also essential when going out in public, so I'm here to give some advice. We're in it for the long haul, after all. With just a couple months of mask-wearing under my belt, I'm no expert, but I've had my share of trial and error, as I'm sure we all have. I've also read just about every article about masks that I come across, so I think I've gathered enough information at this point to be able to share some dos and don'ts.
Aside from the obvious mask-wearing rules, like making sure your mask covers from below your chin to above your nose and avoiding touching your face to adjust your mask, there are quite a few other mistakes that are easy to make while wearing one, so let's discuss.
