Has anyone ever used one of those ear plug things that you can still hear but it’s not as loud / overstimulating

I have the adjustable loops and they're nice but I'd attach them to like a bracelet or something bc I've lost them like 40 times

I use loop ear plugs from time to time! They aren’t noise canceling but they can take the edge off in a loud environment if I still want to be able to hear

As in you want something to be like noise cancelling but small? Do you want it simply for music or just to have things more quiet?

I agree with what #1 said, I have loops and also use them for marching band and going to the grocery store. Sometimes I also just wear them to classes or anywhere I’m overstimulated. I like how they’re small enough to fit on my keychain so I can take them everywhere and won’t forget them. I have the adjustable ones and trying to decide which option to use is a bit confusing but it’s still nice to have the options.

Eh. They’re not bad. I personally struggle getting a good fit so they stay and don’t pop out but I may just have funky shaped ears bc earbuds don’t work great for me either lmao. They worked really well when I was in marching band and required to wear them. I’ve worn them grocery shopping and they weren’t bad since I could hear people next to me if they needed to talk to me but not the whole store. I don’t have the adjustable decibel ones but I can imagine they’re even better
