Description

Surgical mask strap holder prototype with comb insert to minimize risk of dropping and contaminating the device during donning and doffing. The comb can be used with hair as short as 1 inch. Instructions: to use, place the ear saver on the back of your head (Nuchal area) and pull your hair through the comb until it stays in place. Then attach the surgical mask straps over the strap holders and release. To remove, take off the straps from the holders and discard mask. The strap holder should still be in place and may require minor adjustments before the next use.
