Toupee Tape For Hearing Aids, Seriously?!
It might raise an eyebrow but yes, we're serious! Toupee tape is actually one of the best-kept secrets for securing hearing aids.
Toupee tape is skin-safe and sweat-resistant, and sticks hearing aids to ears securely and discreetly. Whether you're spending the day at the beach or running around with the kids, a discreet strip of toupee tape will keep your device right where it needs to be.
✔️ Ideal for: Discreet everyday security
Hearing Aid Storage Boxes
When your hearing aids aren't in use, a hard case offers the best protection. They're lightweight, hard-shelled and brightly coloured, so they're easy to find in a drawer, bag or suitcase. We especially love that they're translucent, so you can instantly see if your devices are inside. No more "wait... where did I put them?" moments!
We offer a variety of colours to suit any preference, which also makes them a handy option for families, schools or care settings where colour coding between individuals can help keep devices organised and easy to identify.
✔️ Ideal for: Travel, hospitals, care homes, or busy households
You're all set to protect your hearing aids!
From stylish safety chains to bright storage boxes and toupee tape hacks, there's a solution for everyone when it comes to hearing aid care. Whether you're planning a trip or just want extra peace of mind day to day, having the right accessories will make all the difference!
