Imagine This…

You’re trying to focus on an important task, but it feels impossible. The distant hum of an air conditioner, the clicking of a pen, the tapping of footsteps down the hall - each sound seems small on its own, but together, they form a constant, exhausting noise cloud that never seems to fade. You try to push through, but the irritation grows. Why does this bother you so much when others seem unfazed? Why does every little sound feel like it's chipping away at your energy and patience?

After some searching, it all started to make sense - noise sensitivity is real, and it affects more people than you might think. Just like some are sensitive to bright lights or strong scents, others, like me, are highly sensitive to sound. And yet, beyond bulky noise-canceling headphones, I had no idea how to deal with it. At least, not at first…

2. Why "Getting Used to the Noise" is a Myth

Think you've adapted to noise? Science says otherwise. Studies show that even when people believe they’ve "gotten used to" their environment, their brains continue to process every sound in the background.

But here's what most people don't understand: your brain doesn’t "tune out" noise - it just works harder to filter it, draining mental energy and increasing stress levels.

For people with noise sensitivity, this constant filtering process can be overwhelming, leading to:

Irritability & anxiety – from seemingly small background sounds

Mental exhaustion – even if you've had plenty of sleep

Difficulty focusing – your brain is prioritizing noise over everything else

Sensory overload – feeling physically drained by noisy spaces

This is why noisy environments can feel unbearable - your brain isn't broken, it's just working too hard to keep up.

3. The Snowball Effect Nobody Talks About

Every hour of exposure to unwanted noise compounds this hidden drain. By the end of the day, your brain has processed thousands of unnecessary sounds - from distant conversations to street noise - leaving you completely drained, anxious, or even physically fatigued.

For those with heightened noise sensitivity, the impact is even more extreme:

  • Loud sounds feel unbearable – even if they seem normal to others
  • Constant tension & stress – because your nervous system is always on high alert
  • Unexplained headaches & fatigue – from your brain constantly over-processing sound

This is why so many people struggle with sensory overload and burnout - they’re unknowingly exhausting their mental and nervous systems just by existing in everyday noise.

4. Why Noise-Canceling Solutions Don’t Really Work

Most noise solutions treat symptoms, not the root cause. Here’s why they don’t fully help:

White noise machines simply add more sound to your environment, forcing your brain to process yet another layer of noise.

Noise-canceling headphones work only in certain environments and can be bulky or uncomfortable for all-day wear.

Traditional earplugs block everything - including important speech frequencies - making them impractical for daily life.

None of these address the core issue: your brain is still in overdrive, constantly working to filter and process sound.

I previously used other earplugs, and I really liked them. However, when I tried Hears, they're a whole other level. More noise reduction, a much more pleasant frequency curve. Also the sized ear tips really allow me to get the right fit. I can hear conversations in loud environments very comfortably.

AMAZING!
I use them during djset and the result is amazing! Noise reduction but i’m still focused.
They’re so comfy and I use them even at work.
One of the best purchase i’ve ever made.

They fit like a glove. Protection is fantastic and bass sounds are still amazing!!! 

Love them, cherish them.

Martijn D.

I’m so impressed with these earplugs! The sound is still rich, and they’re so comfortable to wear for long periods. They’re perfect for anyone who loves live music but wants to protect their hearing.

Better than my expectations!
Was trying to remain neutral in the picking of the company and the product. Some of us are new to any ear bud for music or noise reduction. I also didn’t expect to find a pair small enough for my ear canal. Wow you got me. Two out of two.

Romain T.

It actually works
I fear no decibels now, I'm actually enjoying the music and I can hear people through the Hears. Goodbye ear ringing. Thanks to the team and hope the product keeps improving

SAVED MY HEARING!🙌🏼
These earplugs are the BEST! As someone who works in the nightlife & events industry, these earplugs are great & they look really nice too! 10/10 I would recommend to anyone! Protect your ears, wear Hears.

Dominique F.

Best of the best! A promise delivered!! After several disappointing purchases of specialty earplugs to use on my motorcycle I finally found Hears. A whole new world opened! This is a best of the best product. I now use them on several different settings and they never let me down! Finally a product the delivers on the promise!!

Anthony Z.

Excellent and comfortable too!
We wore them on the plane and also at the festival. Excellent sound dampening without loss of clarity. I have tinnitus and huge loudspeakers can make it worse but these plugs worked a treat. Thank you. Highly recommended!

Great to receive 4 different bud sizes to get best fit. Ive had some plugs before and most fall off, these stay in place.
