4 Pcs Face Mask Extender Strap Hook, Anti-Slip Mask Clips to Protect Ears

As an Early Childhood Educator, I wear a mask all day Monday-Friday. These straps are such a help in making it a more comfortable experience. They are easy to use, don't fall off, and give my ears a much-needed break! If you are using masks with ear loops (instead of ones that tie around your head), these are a must-have. I purchased a set for myself and just bought more to give to relatives. They are easy to adjust, so the same strap will fit both me and my husband (who has a significantly larger head). For such a small item, they have made the past 6 months at work much more bearable!

While I usually prefer masks that have the long ties, my job recently got reusable masks with ear loops with the company logo on them. Not long after I started wearing them, I noticed my jaw would tense up when wearing the masks. I told my dentist/husband about it and he realized the constant pressure on my ears was aggravating my TMJ. He suggested trying a mask strap.These straps are a nice quality, reusable and work great! Best of all, they relieved my issues with my TMJ! I highly recommend them.

Confortable. Easy to use. Lifts pressure off of ears some. Does not stay put if placing the band anywhere but the nape of the neck.

I've tried a few different mask straps in the past, of varying styles, and these have been by-far the best for athletic purposes. It keeps the mask snug on my face without pulling at my ears and I'm able to play sports without worrying about the mask slipping off my face and without it bothering me (relative to a mask without a strap, playing sports in masks sucks – we all know this)...They -do- lose a bit of tautness with extended use due to them being made of an elastic material but they're cheap enough to replace every couple weeks if you're using them that often... Recommended!

The only flaw with these is that they don’t get small enough. At their smallest/tightest setting they wouldn’t hold the mask on my face. But, I found that the little spring ball thing off of a lanyard (see picture) that you use to tighten them worked great on this so I stole one off of an old lanyard and voila. Now it’s perfect.It would be really cool if they included some or made the straps shorter....They stay hooked great so you don’t have to worry about them falling off and getting lost with is way better than the little plastic strap ones.

The straps may not help if you have it behind your ears on the neck. Just change the position of the straps to avoid pulling on the ears. Place it above the ears so the straps go above and behind. Almost to the top of your head. For me it's very comfortable and keeps the mask from sliding down below the nose.

Bought these for our 5-year old who refused to wear masks because they hurt her ears. Not only does she find this solution comfortable, they make it easy enough for her to put on and take off her mask without help! Very well made, and a nice hook design to keep the mask loops secured. We've ordered an additional set so that there are extras for her older brothers to use as well. Highly recommend!

This works well to get mask loop pressure off my ears while also tightening the fit for a better seal. I like that it has shallow hooks the ear loops basically drop into rather than having to thread ear loops through beads or larger hooks.I have flat hair, and the extender does tend to slide down the back of my head and pull downwards rather than back. It’s been most effective when resting on top of a pony tail - not helpful unless you have long hair. If your hair is thicker, you may have better luck keeping it in place but may also get your hair snagged on the extender.
