Even small details such as clothing can matter more than you would think on the day of your hearing test in Bristol.
Skip the Statement Earrings
Don’t forget to take out your earrings before your hearing test (yes, including your small stud earrings). These, including very light jewellery, can get in the way of your test using the headphones, and this can cause delays if you take them out in the waiting room.
Tie Hair Back or Pin It Away
Long hair could rest over the ears and form a seal in the ear canal, preventing the headset from forming a good seal in the ear. The hair should be tied up in a ponytail or pinned back, so that the cups of the headset sit flush against the back of the head throughout the test.
Wear a Comfortable, Open Collar
A tight polo neck or stiff collared shirt could cause problems when sitting upright in the test booth. A loose, comfortable top is all you need to wear for your hearing test.
Remove In-Ear Devices Beforehand
The test requires you to have no earbuds, hearing aids or in-ear Bluetooth speakers in your ears 20 minutes or more before the test (to allow time for the natural retraction of the canals).
