Wearing headphones for just an hour will increase the bacteria in your ear by 700 times?

when you wear headphones, natural air can not pass in your ear. so, the production rate of bacteria in your ear increase by 700%. That is why, it is said that "wearing headphones for just an hour will increase the bacteria in your ear by 700 time". Exactly "At the beginning of the experiment, the typical headset had 60 microorganisms on its surface; after an hour's use of the headphones by a volunteer, that number went up to 650 - roughly 11, not 700, times more.

Headphones aren't bad for your ears if you get the right ones... As long as they fit in your ears comfortably then they should be fine...
