Why do all ear buds have that same soft removable part?
How is it that they all can be removed and fitted onto different brands of ear buds?

They are not recommended to use, as the ear wax is pushed further inwards...cause more harm ...Re Dr Michael Mosley

I don't have a chemist. Do most people have chemists?

@hiddenkitty: yes, your local drug store for over the counter medicine ..we call it a chemist store.

Oh, I think that's what we refer to as a pharmacist in a drug store here in the US. I guess I can try asking. Those soft ear buds are the only type of earphones that work for me, so I can't exactly stop using them altogether.

Cuz, they're all made in the same factory in China, but under contracts by different companies and sold with different names on the packages

It's not. I was just curious.

@hiddenkitty: well not everyone has the same size ears so it's useful to be able to swap the soft parts if need be.

So true. That's a good point.

I happen to have black hair. It's just so fascinating how different companies have decided to use this same design on their ear buds.
