Wait...toe jam?!

On second thoughts, forget it. I don't want to know!

I use my ear syringe 3-4 times a week. Good stuff.

LOL, this is a hilarious topic. But no more pictures, PLEASE.

 

[Bizzel]

We should make this a sticky topic!

Thanks folks, I'll be here all week!

I'd say moderately waxy. There's certainly some, and I have to clean off my foamies every once in a while (I'd say once every couple weeks, wearing them more or less every day). But it's not pouring out of my head.

I use alcohol and q-tips to carefully wipe the outer parts of my ear. I guess I don't make to much of it, because my iems rarely come out with any on the tips. lol

Thick, dark brown, bitter and more heavily accrued in the right ear. After two weeks, my UE Super.Fi 5 Pro or Etymotic ER-4S foamies were completely shot.

"BITTER"? Does that mean you've tasted it before?

Toe jam is...oh, never mind.

I have an industrial waste truck come by each month, to pick up and dipose of my 55-gallon drums of excess....

I just had impressions made today. To my surprise the audiologist found little to no wax in my ears. I clean my ears in the shower and use a kleenex and Q tip when I get out, but I've never had a thorough cleaning. She also told me I had extremely soft ears- not sure what that meant, maybe it was some sort of audiologist pick up line that went over my head.

Anyway, I don't have to clean my e500 tips very often- maybe once every 2 weeks or so.

I just had to ressurect this thread. Nothin' like an earwax discussion

I am moderately waxy too. I clean my ears daily and my IEMs occasionally. I haven't had anything real disgusting like some of these stories but at the same time they can be a little scary looking on removal.

 

[Oya?]

I use one of these.

I've been a bit lazy though since I don't use IEMs anymore.

'My ears have a very small amount of wax'
'I'm moderatly waxy; clean IEM's occasionally'

Hmmm which one...I clean them after I take a shower everyday and usually it just looks yellow.
But when I'm away from home for a few days(like now) then usually I'll get a chunk in one or both ears.
