Advantages: You hear what your meant to and nothing else
Disadvantages: Could be doggy if using whilst jogging/cyclng etc.

...Well what's the point of reviewing earphones? Answer - no matter how good your DVD/MP3/radio/MPEG4 etc if you are mobile the earphones are the most important part. Without a good pair you can have the best unit but it will ultimately be let down by poor earphones. So I have bought several different types in my time and up till now have always been disappointed. This may tell you something about the review to follow. :-) ........................................................................................................................ SUMMARY The Griffin Earthumps are excellent, by far the most superior earphones I have owned. Comfortable Good sound reproduction Cuts out ambient noise to great effect Value for Money 35" (89cm) from jack plug to split point. 14" (35cm) from split to earbud Flexible 3 rubber buds...

...(wiping with tea tree oil, salt water etc). Wait 2-4 months to stretch again to avoid damaging the tissue. Will my ears always be stretched? The vague point of 'no return' is around 2 gauge (6mm) : becoming less likely to return to the size of a standard earring. This ultimately depends on the elasticity of your skin. The stretching will definitely shrink, but how much differs from person to person. If you gradually stretched its more likely that they will return to a normal size as scar tissue hasn't built up. Aftercare As already mentioned, salt water and tea tree oil are the best for helping them to heal. Dissolve around ½ a teaspoon of salt into 500ml of warm water - about shower temperature. For healing stretching it's advised to wear glass, titanium or surgical steel jewellery only to prevent infection. When it's healed... Read review

...? ~ Unfortunately, Hopi Ear Candles are not suitable for everyone. They are not recommended for people who have a perforated eardrum or grommets. If you are unsure whether this is suitable for you consult a therapist or your GP. ~ How much does it cost? ~ I think this will vary depending where you go. It cost me £23 for a 1-hour session (which is £3 more expensive than the IHM at the same place.) You can buy the ear candles online (£5.95) a pair (BIOSUN) and these come with instructions to carry out the procedure from home. It is recommended that you have someone to help you and hold the candle in place. My dad would like to try Hopi Ear Candles but he is worried that he would be sensitive to the oils used in the massage and they'd make him sneeze (he sneezes a lot) so we might buy some of these to try out at home. ~ Would I...

Advantages: Eases discomfort, gently breaks through wax build up.
Disadvantages: Feels funny during application

..., but after a small fuss we had both his ears plugged with the cotton wool and gently massaged the ear helping the oil to work into the ear. He settled off to sleep and we left him with the oil in his ears until the next morning. You could tell after a few minutes the oil was taking effect as he had begun to relax and by the next morning he was clearly a lot more comfortable. It took a further 3 treatments over the following 2 days to completely ease the problem, applying the drops morning and night. Having seen the success with my son I couldn't see the harm in trying it myself and when I had 5 minutes to myself I applied the 4 drops. It's quite easy treating yourself and despite my concern I'd miss the ear and drop the oil all over my cheek I managed to apply it with no spillage. I found you have to slowly apply the drops allowing each one... Read review

Advantages: Goes some way to relieving excess ear wax. Lats a long time
Disadvantages: Difficult to count the drops. Not a miracle cure for lots of excess ear wax.

...these it was so simple to administer them by myself but I have to say that it is more precise when someone else is looking at the liquid and can see the drops coming out! Tilt your head to one side, gently squeeze up to 5 drops in to your ear and it really does only need an ever so gentle squeeze otherwise too much comes out. It is also very hard to tell how many drops you are actually putting in to your ear, unlike eye drops that the person who is administering them, can see and count, when they are going in to your ear they just don't drop out in clear drops. Be sure to keep your head tilted over for a couple of minutes, otherwise most of the liquid will drip out. You will also need a tissue handy to wipe off any excess when you do put your head upright. Don't worry, it doesn't come pouring out, it just feels a little greasy. This can... Read review

Advantages: NO MORE PAIN.......
Disadvantages: None yet!!!!

....20. These are from Lyn Hantcher. There are a variety of prices on the net from 1 pair for £6.95 + p&p to 5 pairs for £28.95 + p&p. I think mine were the best price. However, always shop around. This is the bit that may sound a bit scary.... trust me it isn't! You should follow the instructions and read all the warnings. I am going to take you through my experience. I lay down on the bed in a comfortable position with my head supported by a pillow and with my ear canal straight. The person doing the candling for me lit the open end furthest away from the RED or maximum burn line. This is the unmarked end. They then placed the end with the writing on into my ear and gently turned it until it sealed itself in place. You can hear a slight hissing or crackling but nothing too drastic. It's quite soothing really. The person doing the candling should stay... Read review

Advantages: Reduces the need for painful syringing
Disadvantages: No excuse for not hearing her indoors. The Dog won't kiss me becasue of the smell.

..., the easy to squeeze bottle holds 8mls, which doesn’t sound much, but does last me about 6months. The manufacturers say that you should use 5 drops into each ear once or twice a day. I find 1-3 drops sufficient, any more and it leaks around the outer of my ear. The stuff does smell a little and the dog won’t kiss me after I’ve been using it. However, I can almost feel it taking affect immediately and only need to use it for 3 days. I use it whenever I get that horrible itchy, tickly pain in my ear, which signifies that her in doors has been shouting at me too much and wax, has built a barrier against her tones! Some general points about ear care: 1.Don’t push anything down there, as it will only block the wax and cause trouble. So, don’t push your finger in there or use cotton buds to clean your ears. Never put cotton wool into your ear... Read review

Advantages: cute, easy to use, lovely donkey
Disadvantages: bit repetative

...move up and down when he sings. SO WHAT DOES EEYORE SING? First he says Hello, I don't suppose you wanna sing a song with me. The he sings one of two songs: Do your ears hang low, do they wobble too and fro? OR If your happy and you know it (clap your ears) Then he says its time for his ears to take a nap. Press his foot again and he will sing the other song. His ears will flap/clap in time to the music. They make quite a noise with their flapping and it is quite a sight to see these ears going up and down. IS HE GOOD FOR A CHILD TO PLAY WITH? Well, my baby is only 5 months old, so sits and watches while I press the paw, but it would be easy for a child to operate once they can grip properly. I think he is suitable for children under 18 months because there dont appear to be any loose or small parts, the eyes... Read review
