Tangled earphone wires can be frustrating, especially when it seems impossible to get them untangled and back into a neat and organized shape. We can blame the endless knots formed in our pockets, bags, or purse for this mess. Fortunately, there are easy and inexpensive ways to store your earphone cables and keep them tangle-free.
First, you will need a zip tie. Almost any zip tie will work, but those sized 4 inches or less are most convenient. To start the wrapping process, begin by loosening the tie and using it to gather and secure the pairs of earphones together. If you have multiple pairs of earphones, you can gather them all together using the zip tie and then secure the strands together. Now, take the string of earphones and begin to wind them around your arm or hand. This will help keep the cables orderly as you continue to wrap them.
Once you have the earphone cables tightly wound, carefully begin to slide the zip tie over the cables. Make sure you are not squeezing the wires too tightly, as this could cause damage to your earphones. Continue to upgrade the tie until all of the earphone wires are tightly wrapped together. Once you reach the end, pull the zip tie tightly and position it so that your earphones are secure and tangle-free. If the zip tie is too long, you can trim the excess with a pair of scissors.
Wrapping your earphone wires with a zip tie is a simple and cost-effective way to reduce the clutter and keep your earphones in good condition. With this inexpensive and quick solution, you can quickly and easily eliminate tangles and keep your earphones organized and easy to access.
