Welcome to class, I hope you enjoyed the last class. Today we will be talking about Grooming And Care of the body. Follow me closely and you will understand what we are about to talk about.
As an individual, you need to take care of yourself. This involves personal hygiene and good grooming. These are necessary for good health and personal appearance. Your appearance also is especially important as it is because it’s your appearance that tells people the type of person you are. It also determines how well you are accepted.
Personal hygiene and good grooming require cleanliness at every part of your body including hair, eyes, nose, teeth, skin and the legs. They also include choosing and wearing clean clothes, maintaining good posture, eating good food, and other healthy habits.
