Product Information

This was very helpful and greatly appreciated, but I think the warning against the use of all heating elements goes overboard. The linked source reveals the melting points of all types of both PVC and Nylon to be far above the kind of heat a household hairdryer can generate. In fact, hairdryer temps (roughly 30-60ºC) almost perfectly line up with the “mold temperatures” of those materials – that is, the temp at which they are most pliable – which is kinda the goal, isn’t it? Being inside a case or bag means there’s not much room for your headphones to toss around. In addition, some of them also come with designated slots that keep your cords safe from twists. Turning them anywhere between 0-360° is enough to set off the twisting effect on the cords, especially if it happens all the time.

And last but not least, the free pattern includes the round template too. These turned out to be the best with the tiny cables - they help keep those little electronic accessories organized in my drawer. Keep your earbuds tangle-free, too! This way, when you close it, the two Velcro® pieces will meet - and hold your cable in place. How To Make A Large Cable Holder?

Pin hook and loop fastener – one piece on either side of the cord keeper, so that it fastens when you fold the cord wrap. When you use your headphones on the go, keeping them in a dedicated case or carry bag is the safest storage method. The curling or twisting of headphones’ cords is often a result of natural everyday use. Throughout the day, we’re constantly adjusting the position or orientation of our headphones.

Use scissors to make small triangular notches on each of the curved sides to allow the fabric to lay flat. If you have pining shears, use them instead as it’s faster! To make the cord keeper cut one outer fabric, one lining fabric, and optionally, one interfacing. I always add it for stability. Compared to other tubing, HelaWrap is applied with its own applicator tool.Thanks to this, HelaWrap can be installed or removed in seconds, similar to closing or opening a zipper. Other spiral tubes are usually installed by wrapping manually. This is very simple but takes more time. TIP: Fusible interfacing has a rough (bumpy side with glue, and a smooth side). Use your fingertips to determine which side is which. STEP 4: Layer and pin fabrics

Product overview

Pin around the whole thing, and leave a 2 inch opening on one of the longer sides, so you can turn it around later. Once you build up the habit of keeping your headphones in the same orientation and letting the cord unfurl after each use, you can potentially have a longer-lasting pair. As a bonus, you’ll also get fewer headaches from untwisting headphones. After reading this guide, you should know how to straighten your headphones’ cord and keep them safe from nasty twists buildups. The next time you put your headphones on, just remember that the slightest movements can lead to a twisted mess. When your headphones’ cord doesn’t have too much room to move, there’s less possibility of them getting twists and tangles.
