KF94 w/ head straps is available on Aliexpress. Good for hijab/glass wearers. And it allows the mask to be pressed securely against the face without hurting the ears ( a good fit on the face is extremely important).
N95 and KN95 masks are basically same. Head bands are about 40% more effective than ear loops. Companies push the ear loop variety because they are easier, faster, and slightly cheaper to manufacture. If you have a choice, go with headband variety, but any type is better than nothing.
And you do not wear glasses for these heaf bands to get hung up on every time you have to put on or take off. The head straps are extremely uncomfortable and harder to adjust the nose piece. And the kn95 with the head straps aren’t available…never found them ANYWHERE
I'm 99.9% sure that N95 is just a KN95 that went through the trouble of certification. I'm 99% sure the manufacturer did it so they could charge more for their masks.
KN95 masks are knock offs of N95 masks that’s been around for some time. How are they trying to up charge the people when N95’s were always expensive?? Your 99% is wrong. My 3M masks has a better seal and it’s structured a lot better than the flimsy KN95 masks.

Always get the straps over the loops, unless you can do something about tightening those loops...

Good info for lay mask wearers. Respectfully, will a different title increase the search returns, i.e. "KN95 Head Strap Model vs KN95 Ear Loop Model"?

Thank you for this, it really helps.
You're very welcomed :) we love to talk clean air!
That's not an N95 mask.
Exactly
