摘要：The habit of using headphones has been growing gradually in people's lives, especially among the young audience. In view of the lack of information about the harm caused by the incorrect use of headphones, this article aims to report on the possible consequences for hearing health that users are exposed to. This is an integrative literature review where several articles were selected using the platforms of Google Scholar, LILACS, SCIELO.
