DEAFMETAL® is an award winning, bold, fashion-forward jewelry innovation created and designed for hearing aid and cochlear implant users by Finnish fashion designer, Jenni Ahtiainen, who herself wears hearing aids. Through the collaboration of Jenni and US audiologist, Jen Aslin, they have designed a collection for all ages. Some chains are a safety chain. Some chains are a statement. Our safety retention cuffs have been worn from pediatrics to customers in their 90’s. They are definitely a conversation piece and a way to destigmative wearing hearing aids.
My name is Jenni Ahtiainen and I am the creator of DEAFMETAL®. DEAFMETAL® is an accessory brand for hearing aids. I have been working as a fashion designer for 15 years. I’ve sold my designs for consumers in Japan, Europe, and in the US. I have also designed stage costumes to bands and musicians like Marilyn Manson, Snoop Dogg, and Bono. These opportunities have been incredible for a Finnish fashion designer who loves to listen to music. But then I lost my hearing and I was shocked. And got hearing aids. It made me wonder…why is it that if you have bad eyesight, you get to choose whatever kind of eyeglasses that suit your style? You have something regardless of if you are a woman, man, child, rocker, hipster, or even goth. However, if you have bad hearing, you don’t have that choice. You can’t even see one single beautiful picture of a hard of hearing people in lifestyle, fashion, or beauty magazines. Well, not until now…we started to take beauty shots and fine art pictures of hard of hearing people to make hearing problems more common and visual. When I received my hearing aids, I put the aids behind my ears and started to think. I innovated a small holster around the hearing aids and then I hung some leather strips into the holster. Suddenly, the hearing aids felt more like me. They looked like me and I looked like me. This is how DEAFMETAL® was born—very naturally and organically by the hands of a hard of hearing fashion designer.
"So I just received my double safety ring and holster for my Advanced Bionics CI and it's amazing! So much nicer than all the other grips that the company provided that are so cumbersome and awkward to use! And this looks like something one wants to wear not has to wear! Thank you for creating this beautiful piece of jewelry."
Bev Canada 2 months agoThis little hearing aid attachment for a cuff is a GAME CHANGER. I have little kids who like to rough house, and frequently have to have my head at a weird angle to see what I'm doing for work. Yesterday my hearing aids fell out of my ears at least 5 times. Today zero times. I love it I love it I love it. I will be sharing this with everyone I know, and probably some random strangers. Cannot recommend this product enough. (also arrived super quick!) what a brilliant innovation - thank you for quite literally making my life easier!

Palochhead 2 months agoLove this product! Made me feel like me wearing my hearing aids! I was able to let my personality show thanks to Deafmetal. Also I don't worry that my mask will pull off my hearing aid or if I bend upside down they'll wiggle out. So much security built into something so small and fun. Truly grateful
Rachel 2 months ago"Very Cute! My daughter was very excited and said they hold her hearing aid in place while baton twirling."
Tammy USA 2 months ago“I just wanted to say, thank you for making your product. I started losing my hearing 2 years ago at age 20 and I have had a really difficult relationship with my hearing aids and their “old lady” look. I am so happy that I now found a way to make them look cool
Andrea Poland 2 months ago“I am new to the HoH (hard of hearing) community. Thanks for creating a product that makes the transition welcoming and celebrated. It makes me feel confident that my device is secure and an expression of me.”
Adrianna USA 6 months ago“I tried these out when I went to an event last night-not only did my hearing aids stay firmly in place, but I got some compliments on my "ear cuffs" - no one even seemed to notice that I was wearing hearing aids! I will definitely buy more from this shop, thank you!"
