How many of you have tinnitus/hearing loss because of using headphones/loud music over the years? Did you do something about it? If you don't have those, how did/do you avoid getting them? (self.headphones)

This sounds wrong. Ear hair is like any other hair, and we don't use it for hearing.

The vestibular system has hairs deep inside, which helps with balance and hearing. They are unrelated to whatever is growing out of your ear-hole.
