Can you just wear head band and no ear plugs? Like will it keep water out or you have wear both?

Ear plugs needs to be used as well to block water. A combination of the ear plugs and Ear Band-It provides maximum protection from water. Thanks for your interest!

Does it provide any noise protection while sleeping when used with no earplugs? I'm an adult women

We only used it with earplugs in the pool so I am not sure

Anyone do club swim and use this or the original? My teen swims 5x a week and competes, need to keep h2o out until eardrum heals.

I have a son who also swims competitively and needs to keep eardrum dry after recent surgery. Can you tell me what worked best? He has custom ear plugs and silicone cap pulls out plugs. Wondering if ULTRA band it worn over plugs is enough OR he needs to wear plugs, ULTRA band it and then cap.

My 2 1/2 year old daughter is getting tubes. Water can't get in her ears, do i need to put ear plugs with headband for bath when I wash her hair?

I usually just use the band when I wash my son’s hair and use the plugs with the head band when I know he is going to be submerged in water (in the pool)
