OpenCV hand detection?

I have created a perfect skin detector, but it detects ALL skin. What are my possible options to separate the hands from the rest of the skin?

I don't want to use haar identifiers, so please don't suggest it.

How to detect skin color in OpenCV?

The skin color detection is one of the most popular methods. This method is simple and depends on skin color that can be white, black, or other colors, and the environment light conditions, as well as the background. Another method doesn’t use the color hand; it uses the convexity detection of OpenCV.

My suggestion is to first segment out the different skin regions through blob detection.

You can then eliminate the unwanted blobs by area and shape thresholding A bit of filtering before these steps would help a lot
