If I got heat shrink that was big enough to get over the headphone, would it shrink down small enough?

Nope.

Just electrical tape the damn things already. Noone is gonna be looking at your headphone wires that closely.

shmokes:
Electrical tape is, at best, a temporary solution.  Before long it will come loose, and start sliding up and down the wire leaving a sticky residue behind.  And while it will provide insulation to protect from shocks (already not a concern for me), it's not going to do very much for the structural integrity of the cable, i.e., to keep the thing from tearing worse or snapping.

So, yeah, while I'd rather the solution be as elegant/inconspicuous as possible, which is totally reasonable, it's not my only concern.

shardian:
pb jim will chime in eventually. That ought to be entertaining.

shmokes:
If by entertaining you mean like having my brain run over a cheese grater.  :)
