However, they "rustling" sound that occurs when they are touched (behind the ear) by my glasses, hair, whatever, drives me crazy. I have told them, they made adjustments and they still bother me. I seldom wear them now. I wish I would have gotten advise from other wearers before I went this route. Knowing nothing about hearing aids and since I never had them before, I had to rely totally on what they recommended.
Anyone else have experience with ReSound or have issues with the "rustling" sound?

If it's my hair rustling the aids, then it means I'm past due for a trip to the barbershop. As far as my glasses - the ear pieces are worn inside of the aids. I did have to have those ear piecs loosened a bit though. What bothers me the most is wind noise and then the aids go into the storage box until I go back inside.
I realize that not everyone wears their hair short but one of Uncle Sam's 'stylists' way back started me with much shorter hair (goodby DA
) but that's not for everyone
