If you believe that Deaf people can’t function well in this world, well, you believe wrong. We got Deaf actors/actresses, Deaf CEOs, Deaf photographers, Deaf musicians, Deaf entertainers, Deaf teachers/professors, Deaf models and plenty more out there. Perhaps it’s you who can’t function well in this world.

So just recently a Hearing Aid dispenser/audiologist company has been advertising discreet hearing aids for sale.

With this as an advertisement:

Now personally, having an animal/reptile on…

My husband specifically choose his behind-the-ear hearing aid (and the casing a different color to NOT match his hair) so that the general public would know he is wearing them. So that they KNOW he has hearing loss and they can compensate.  Ugh, DO YOU RESEARCH stupid advertisers.  

Ideally they SHOULD research… realistically? NOPE.  There is a reason why I decorate my HAs to bright colours. To show the world there is NOTHING to be ashamed of. You can make your HAs colourful or discreet which ever ones choice. I make mine colourful, my HEARING friends get jealous that I can decorate them to whatever design i want whenever I want.

Here it is! The How To Decorate Your Hearing Aids video!! It is of course Closed Captioned (thanks to lovely nyappytotoro for CCing it!) because Accessibility is important.  I hope these instructions were clear enough, if not I can specify if needed!

I can’t wait to see more decorated Hearing Aids/Cochlear Implants/BAHA! You should also all join the Pimp My Hearing Aids / Cochlear Implants - UK group on Facebook if you haven’t already! You may just find who I am on there if not already haha!
