How to Wink in Seven Steps

How to Wink

Introduction

Winking doesn't come naturally to everyone. Some of us need to practice to be able to do it, or at least to do it without looking like we're having a spasm of some kind. If you don't know how to wink, or you can not seem to get the hang of winking, the following steps may help you.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You'll Need

*Two eyeballs

Steps

Step One

Look at yourself in the mirror with both eyes open to practice.

Step Two

Close one eye quickly. If you can't do one side, try the other. Do which ever side feels more comfortable.

Step Three

Practice getting one eye as close to closing as possible if you can't get it shut all the way. Don't get frustrated if you can't get it there; it may just take you a while.

Step Four

Close one eye and hold it with your hand if you still can't wink. Practice this until you can keep your eye closed even after you've released it from your hand.

Step Five

Try winking the other eye once you get one eye down. With enough practice you'll be able to wink one eye at a time quickly one after the other.

Step Six

Make sure, by checking yourself out in the mirror, that you aren't squinting or making a weird face when you wink. Practice winking until you look normal and natural doing it.

Step Seven

Try out your new wink on a friend. You'll be able to see by the expression on his face whether you've done it correctly, or if you still need more work.

Tips & Warnings

  • Use your new skill in a variety of ways; for flirting, teasing or giving someone a signal. Kids also love to wink and be winked at.
  • Don't go overboard with winking. People interpret winking in different ways. Some might think a chronic winker is up to no good.
