Now here is some research about what a handshake says about you.
1. A weak handshake shows the person is lack of confidence.
2. A handshake with both hand is also called a politician handshake. The initiator is trying to show his sincerity.
3. A handshake with taking an upper hand is showing over confidence of initiator & a controller. It's also called as a dictator handshake.
4. A very quick brush off handshake shows the initiator is don't care & don't have time to this person.
5. A too hard or too long handshake shows negative excess or overcompensation.
