Abstract
Various embodiments provide for an improved attachment apparatus for attaching the attachment apparatus to an ear of a user. In some embodiments, the attachment apparatus may include an attachment body that defines an opening configured to enable a majority of a user's ear to pass through the opening when the attachment apparatus is coupled to the user. In such embodiments, the opening may include a first opening portion that enables an upper portion of the ear to pass through the opening and a second opening portion that enables a lower portion of the ear to pass through the opening. The attachment body may secure the attachment apparatus to a root of an upper portion of the user's ear received via the first opening portion and to a root of a lower portion of the user's ear received via the second opening portion.
