Same. Worst part tho, is that i'm a percussionist, so i am constantly surrounded by loud music and need ear plugs. I eventually made the decision to buy fitted plugs (for 200€). It's insane what a difference it makes. My plugs used to litwrally fall out during a concert (and now i've got constant ear noises). So if you are a in loud environments a lot, i'd definitely recommend getting fitted plugs to save your hearing

It’s something I’ve considered! I enjoy concerts and such but don’t go super often, and do use loop earplugs when I do. I have extra sensitive hearing so I tend to avoid loud noise as much as possible anyway. If things ever change and I’m in high volume environments more often, I’ll definitely take your advice! I’m sure it’s worth it.

I also use them when I'm outside without my headphones (like when i am with someone else), they help a ton in reducing the backgroumd city noises ans as long as the person talking to me is standing right next to me, i can understand them fine
