How do you wear headphones while you're trying to sleep?

(I assume the person is watching this in bed and sleeping during it)

I need sound while I sleep, my wife doesn't. So I have a headband that has Bluetooth headphones in it specifically for sleeping. It's pretty comfortable and I get to snooze to whatever I want. Before that I had some low profile buds that I used, but the band is much more comfortable.

Can I get the name of that headband? I have the same situation.

They were a gift so the best I can do is that they are just called sleep headphones and the brand is voerou, I'm fairly certain they were found online. Wish I could be more helpful.

Edit: actually could be more helpful, I found them on Amazon

Can I know the name of this headband thing you're using? Sounds like something that would help me out. Been using low profile ear buds when I nap but they're still uncomfortable.

Of course, I answered it here for someone else.

Normally? Not sure what sort of headphones you're thinking of.

I sleep on my side so the full weight of my head rests on whatever headphones I'm wearing.

I've tried sleeping with a full headset and with earbuds.

Neither one of them are comfortable enough for me to sleep in unless I'm exhausted.

Have just one in on the ear not on the bed side. Or sleep on your back. That's how I do it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Same, but I regularly fall asleep with one of my pixel buds in an ear while listening to a podcast or audiobook as I fall asleep.it isn't comfortable to lay on, but if I don't toss and turn, that's not a problem.

I do it with a single earbud

I'm a little late here, but I have to wear active noise cancelling headphones to bed since my upstairs neighbor is a troglodyte. A firm pillow with a hole in the middle has saved me - along with plenty of disinfectant spray.

An earbud, something low profile and wireless works really well.
