How to open your eyes underwater, close your soft palette, protect your skin and hair | Mermaid Echo 

This is fantastic!!! No one talks about this. No one has this advice!! Humming!!! thank you so much!

THOSE NOSE PLUG TIPS!!!!! I’ve never heard them before!!!

I can already deal with opening my eyes underwater, i just need to train my sinuses to handle it. This video really helped a lot, I'm just a few steps closer to being better at mermaiding! Thank you!!

Would you be able to do a video regarding drainage holes in silicone tails?

Thank you mermaid Echo!

When I have my eyes open underwater and I swim really fast it hurts so bad! It is like wind drying out my eyes!

does the eye gel stop or calm the burning sensation of your eyes when swimming in any type of water?

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!

I am allergic to chlorine though, 😭 I get panda eyes ( black around the eyes ) and they last for a week. What should I do?

Thank you so so so much!! So so so helpful!❤

Thanks for the product suggestions Echo!

ah this is so helpful, thankyou!

Really good tips! Thanks!

I'm a mermaid to ♡

I like Odeous! I've got a betta of my own, (double tail) Killian Jones! He's a little more lively than Oddy it seems! ;)

what is a good makeup to use underwater that is water proof enough for underwater videos and photos!! Also underwater paint so I can paint my mermaid shell top!??

Do you put the aquaphore on your whole body including face before going in the pool? Also do you put the coconut oil on your face?

when im swimming with my tail and also wearing goggles i tell the kids that the chemicals humans use in the water is more than my mermaid eyes can Handel

So I just got a buzzcut... should I still use coconut oil?

can't go to the community pool with coconut oil in my hair because it'll make the water gross for other swimmers. Would it still be beneficial if I put the oil in my hair post swim?

For me, humming doesn’t work face up. The pressure of a simple hum is not strong enough to keep the water out, and I end up swallowing in through my nose. I would have to blow out more forcefully, closer to a growl. I use a soft palate trick, where there’s some value that closet in my nostrils. Some water does get in the sinuses, but the trick is to control it (hold it there) so it doesn’t hurt or go down your throat. When I come up, I think close a valve lower in my throat, tilt my head down and forcefully exhale to get the water out.

please to update the show for underwater

Hello mermaid Echo, Is it necessary that those of you who dedicate yourself to mermaid swimming have to give us a course to open our eyes underwater? When I open my eyes under the water I have always seen it as a rule, all my family, my friends, my girlfriend and I, we always keep them open under the water of the pool, so we can play, looking at each other to make gestures, try to listen what we talked about underwater, passing between the legs, picking up objects ... I imagine they will ask you to explain it, that's why you upload these videos, sorry for the way I express myself. It is true that when we finish the day of the pool, we have red eyes and sometimes even cloudy vision, but we never use drops or gels, after a few hours everything is restored.

I don't have any pain in my eyes when diving... even in salt water
