Answer 1

First of all, there are two distinct types of wireless headphones: RF and Infra-red. The infra red pose zero health risk (think of the lightwaves that come from your tv remote). The second type is more complicated to explain, but they are just as safe. The level of energy given off by the transmitter is far too low to cause any health risk, and is wrong type of radiation anyway. The type of radiation that causes damage is known as ionizing radiation, types like alpha, beta, and neutron. None of these are present in your headphone system. Before you get too excited though, both types of headphones can harm you another way...hearing loss. Keep the volume down! (I'm adding that because you said you were 16...lol)

Answer 2

There is insufficient evidence to prove that this happens
