For those unable to follow the link to the article... all you have to do is ask.

To test how effective mask alterations are, Cambridge researchers recruited four volunteers to try seven different mask hacks on the KN95 mask (left) and surgical mask (right). These included wrapping different brands of panyhose around the head on top of the mask and knotting the ear loops on the masks. They also use three rubber bands to create a 'brace' around the nose and mouth and fabric tape to stick the mask to the face. Volunteers also had first aid gauze wrapped around their head to tighten the fit of the mask, as well as gauze stuffed into gaps inside the mask

The graph shows how much each mask alteration improved the fit of surgical masks. The Cambridge researchers found pantyhose were the most effective hack, followed by cloth tape, knotted ear loops and gauze
