Since there is an increase in mask wearing during the COVID 19 pandemic, this might help comfort some ears slightly.
I've added a new file with a slot for a bobby pin and a slightly longer comb to keep it in place better. I would recommend using the Bobby Pin file based on the feedback I've had.
It's a clip to protect your ears while wearing a surgical mask frequently or for extended periods. The comb allows you to store the clip in your hair while not wearing a mask. It also makes it easier to put the mask onto the clip while on your head. You can wear it with a pony tail, a bun, a braid, and probably some other untested hair styles too.
It is designed for people with longer hair. The wider clips allow the mask bands to go around the ears. It can be formed to match your head or used flat, but they are much better when formed.
There are two sizes. Regular and Large.
Regular: The regular size should fit surgical masks as the elastic is very stretchy in them. The regular size is also better for keeping in your hair while on shift. This should fit on most printers as well.
Large: This is designed for masks with tighter elastics like homemade masks. It will not stay in place without a mask as well, and will not fit on as many printers (turning at a 45 degree angle on the bed may make it fit.)
You can add a custom name as pictured if you want.
