Isopropyl alcohol
Small brush for cleaning

Steps

Tip the Buds

The first step is to remove the headphones from your head and tip the earbuds outwards. This will help to loosen any dried ear wax or debris and make it easier to remove. To make it easier and more thorough to remove the debris, you can use a small brush or the corner of a cloth to rub the earbud

Clean the Buds

After removing the ear wax, it is time to properly clean the earbud. Start off by using a soft cloth to wipe the inside and outside of the earbuds. This also removes any traces of sweat and built-up dirt on the earphones. To clean the tighter spaces of the earphone, you can use Q-tips soaked in isopropyl alcohol. For the outer side of the earbud, use a lightly damp cloth.

Air-Dry the Buds

Once the earbuds are clean and dry, you can apply a thin layer of isopropyl alcohol once again to remove any residues and to disinfect the earphones. Let the alcohol dry on its own while carefully guarding against any liquid entering the headphone’s wiring. Allow the headphones to air dry for some time before you wear them again.

Cleaning ear wax out of headphones is a task that should be undertaken regularly to maintain their hygiene and condition. By following the steps mentioned above, you can easily keep your headphones clear from ear wax. Additionally, make sure that you store your headphones in a safe, low-temperature space as this will help to preserve their condition for longer.
