If you’re still wearing a tie to work this might be a reason for more casual Friday’s. It’s been found in a study that wearing a necktie can reduce blood flow to the brain by 7.5%. Also, if you’re experiencing headaches, nausea, or feel dizzy it could be the fancy decorative rope around your neck. The study found that if it’s too tight it can increase pressure on your eyes as well. Oh! And they tend to be great at carrying germs because we wash them less. I think it’s time to ask ourselves why a piece of dangle fabric is really a necessity to show you’re professional and fancy.
