Comment on Is there a wig that doesn't heat your head?
cabhan@discuss.tchncs.de 2 months agoI would +1 this. I’m completely bald, and almost never leave the house without a hat, even in summer. It’s also important protection against sunburn :).
For something comfortable in the summer, I personally often go for brimmed hiking hats. A few that I like:

I’m also bald, but even before I started shaving my head and had long hair I wore a lot of hats. Still helped keep the sun off me and I tend to run kind of hot so it helped keep sweaty hair out of my face.
I have a couple hats similar to those kicking around, they mostly get used when I’m camping, hiking, etc.
My main every day summer hats are a panama straw fedora, a linen flat cap, and very occasionally a trucker cap that I mostly use as my fishing hat.
I also have a straw cowboy hat that I only bust out occasionally, when I’m both feeling a little silly and I’m gonna be out in direct sun for a long time, like out in the middle of my lake on my kayak. It looks a little goofy, I’m certainly no cowboy, but it’s practically like walking around with a shade umbrella on my head.
I tend to run pretty hot and sweaty, so when the sun isn’t a concern, I often wear a bandana to keep sweat out of my face.
My wife has a very big, floppy hat she wears at the beach sometimes, looks like straw but is actually some sort of recycled plastic.
