According to research done by Dr. George Carlo, wearing a handsfree headset that has a wire could be worse than just talking normally on your cell phone. This is because it can sometimes act as an antenna, or receiver, for electromagnetic energy fields and radiofrequencies that are floating in the environment. The wire then receives this radiation and directs it toward your head, making a protective device even more dangerous.
Bluetooth devices can likewise be dangerous, and still bring radiation energy to the head and ear.
The safest alternative is to use an airtube headset. Also, equipping any headset with ferrite beads can prevent the transmittal of radiation. An airtube headset with ferrite beads is probably the safest handsfree device available.
