i think there is another reason that people do not like to have their head under water. I always found it very difficult to breathe out through the nose and push the remaining water out before breathing in through the mouth again. When I tried to breathe in through my mouth the water stuck in my nose would run down my throat. Since i use a nose clip I never had a problem like this again.
Edit: I also use earplugs to keep water out of my ears because the swimming cap over the ears was not comfortable for me.

Even if this is basic advice, I still learnt something from it. It is natural or comfortable to swim with the head above water, that does not mean it is efficient or correct.
Also I like how you respond to misinformation. One commenter said to let people do what they want while you kindly reminded them there is a correct way (of course, you are educating your audience to make their swimming life easier.

I have never been able to get the breathing right
I've tried repeatedly over the years. If I exhale through my nose I fill up with water coughing, same with exhaling through mouth. I love to swim! I don't need goggles. I have severe osteoarthritis. Swimming is my mobility and I want to do it right. Any other suggestions?

Why do you swim with head up:
- Do not want to put your face in the water
- It is hard to breathe
- You swim without goggles
- Do not want to get your hair wet

I might drink the chlorine water and the water might go in my ear. Well that's the reason I don't want to put my head in. I am 12 year old. My name is Surya. This my dad's account. I practice in BASAVANAGUDI AQUATIC CENTER.

Joining the armed forces there is a swimming test where they require you to breast stroke with your head above the water, I don't wish to but I have to, is there a way to facilitate the swimming while doing that?

I mean, I want to keep my head up when I'm swimming with friends, which is almost always the case. We talk, want to see eachother and just breathe more naturally instead of making bubbles with our noses

I swim in a super busy pool with a lot of annoying casual swimmers who can't stop complaining about me bumping into them because I don't lift my head up and look at traffic
