KN95 mask fit

[redbird]

Either the earloop-style Powecom KN95 masks are too small for me, or I had one ear loop badly tangled with the left arm of my glasses. The latter seems likely, since the loop on my right ear was only mildly annoying. (I pulled it out after deciding it was time to replace the N95 mask I'd started with, after taking it down to eat ice cream, putting it back on, repeat.)

I'd brought this mask with me because I wanted a spare N95 or KN95, and it fold up significantly smaller than the duckbill-style N95s, in part because the unfolded mask is smaller.

Got it! And yes, I do the same thing re ear loops and masks and haircuts. Unfortunately, my favorite hair cutter is in an area of NJ where they gave up on masks as early as they could - and so folks would look at me VERY oddly if I came in wearing one. That plus the really long drive gives me pause, to be sure.... though folks are quickly abandoning them here, too. Which Sweetheart and I refuse to do.

When I made the original appointment, a few weeks ago, I asked if they could cut my hair with a mask, and they said yes, and "whatever you're comfortable with." At the time, the website also said that if you want your stylist to wear a mask, tell the receptionist when you arrive.

Also, this is a part of Massachusetts where a lot of people are still masking even when it's not required, at least for now.
