Wired earphones have become a status symbol to some
Referencing TikTok star, actor, and model Lily Rose Depp, Hull says, “She’s very put together, but it’s like, ‘How did I end up in this designer outfit looking so cool and put together?

Why am I falling back in love with wire earphones?
On TikTok, @almondbutterchaos’s clip is captioned “why am I falling back in love with wire earphones” while a story published in Vogue back in 2019 said that model Bella Hadid was bringing back wired earphones. Hull got the idea to create the @wireditgirls TikTok account from a tweet disseminated by Satenstein who wrote, “some idiot/genius, please make a page of just hot girls wearing wired headphones.” Shelby wrote, “I was on my way back from a CycleBar class, and I had five photos pop up in my head of Zoe Kravitz and Lily Rose Depp wearing wired headphones. So I made the page and started posting that morning.”
AirPods are a bad look in some countries
In some areas of the world, wearing AirPods is a bad look. TikTok subscriber Ruby Sutton said that she gave up her AirPods in 2019 while studying abroad in France. Why? Sutton states that “I started using wired earphones again during study abroad because, in France, AirPods were a really bad look.” A person wearing wired earphones is not worried about looking as though they are not connected to modern technology.
AirPods in-ear models range in price from $129 to $249
The AirPods Pro is priced at $249 and has a shorter stem. It also features customizable bud tips that deliver a tighter fit helping to keep unwanted background noise from being heard by the user. It is way too early for Apple to start writing the obituary of the AirPods and we’re sure that the company has not given up on the product that remains the top true wireless stereo earbuds in the world.
