What Hearing Aid Color Options Are Available?

Depending on the brand and type of hearing aid, you might see anywhere from three to over 20 color choices. 

Once you know which type of hearing aid is right for you, you can narrow down your color choices by deciding between subtle, or more stylish.

Two Main Categories: Blend in or Stand Out

When it comes to hearing aid color, options are either subtle where no one can see them, or they’re stylish and made to be seen.
  • If you want your hearing aids to blend in and nearly disappear, you should choose tones that match your skin or hair - think beige, light, dark brown, or gray.
  • If you prefer colorful hearing aids that stand out, consider a color like deep red, or even metallics like rose gold or sapphire blue, to make a statement.

The type of hearing aid you need and choose will decide your color options. 

Behind-the-ear (BTE) and receiver-in-canal (RIC) styles are more visible, so they come in a wide variety of colors - both neutral and bold - to blend in or make a statement. 

Since styles like completely-in-canal (CIC), in-the-canal (ITC), and in-the-ear (ITE) are designed to be discreet and nearly invisible, they typically come only in clear or natural skin-tone shades.

See the tables below for a breakdown of color options by hearing aid style.

Blending Color Options

Top 5 Blending Hearing Aid Colors in Action

Blending means choosing a hearing aid color that closely matches your head and face features - hair, skin tone, or both. The goal is to make it as unnoticeable as possible.

For example, someone with gray hair might choose a gray device, while someone with brown skin might go for deep brown. This look is ideal for people who prefer discretion when wearing hearing aids.

With the variety of neutral shades available, it’s easier than ever to find a subtle match.

These colors are chosen to blend in with your skin tone or hair color, offering a more discreet look.

#1 Beige

A classic neutral that blends into most fair skin tones, offering subtle visibility.

5 Colorful Hearing Aids for the Fashion Forward

For some wearers, hearing aids don’t just help them hear well, they’re an extension of their personality. Choosing a bolder color can express style, confidence, or even fun. 

Some people match their devices to their glasses, hair dye, jewelry, and even outfits. Others prefer to embrace their hearing accessory instead of hiding it. 

Whether it's about embracing hearing aids or making a statement, these vibrant options help you celebrate your individuality while enjoying better hearing.

These bold, vibrant, or high-gloss colors are designed to stand out and make a statement.

#1 Black

A timeless, bold choice that provides high contrast - often chosen for visibility or style.
