Hair for Hats is a range of hat wig products specially designed as a comfortable and natural-looking lightweight alternative to full wigs for hairloss through chemotherapy or alopecia.

Our hat wigs attach the perfect amount of human hair to a headband, for endless "Hats with Hair" options with one piece,looking like a full head of hair under your all your beanies and hats. 

What hats should I wear with it? 

This works well under all sorts of hats, beanies and scarves. We recommend:

  • Wide-brim sun hats for the beach.
  • Newsboy hats and fedoras for cafes and out and about.
  • Beanies - cotton in warmer weather, wool in colder weather.
  • Baseball caps (stretch caps, without the ponytail hole)
  • Bamboo beanies "yoga" Christine Headwear - in black and taupe; and "Softies" by Jon Renau in mocha and black. Comfortable to wear at home and sleep in.

FAQS

HOW DO YOU USE HAT WIGS?

Our hair attaches to headband (included) - just put it on and pop a hat or beanie on top. Add a scarf over the top to dress it up.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU NEED TO WASH HAIR FOR HATS WIGS?

Our human hair wigs rarely need to be washed (once every second month will do it) as they are not absorbing oils from your scalp. Whenever you wish, just pop the headband in the washing machine, and gently hand-wash your fringe with baby shampoo in a bowl, rinse well and dry it on a towel. Here's a video demonstration of how to washing your human hair wig and headband. 

WHERE DOES THE HAIR USED IN YOUR WIGS COME FROM?

Our human hair is donated in Australia, sourced with gratitude from Sustainable Salons.

CAN YOU HEAT IT?

Yes! It's 100% human hair so you can use a straightener and curler, and style it like your own hair.

IS THERE A LONGER OR SHORTER VERSION?

Yes it now comes in three lengths: short (8-9cm), medium (18-19cm) and long (25-30cm).

The longer version is twice as thick as the short and medium, made for the back of the head.

You can attach two pieces to the one headband for a "hair halo", covering the full circumference of your head.
