Hats and Headwear for Hair Loss

Here are some ideas, tips and recommendations for hats and headwear for hair loss, which pair perfectly with a Hair for Hats hairpiece:

1. Bamboo beanies/"softies" for everyday

Google Jon Renau "softies" or other light bamboo beanies are great for sleeping in, lounging at home in, and for wearing under scarves. I found earthy colours like brown, black, grey and dark blue looked the nicest.

2. Beanies with hair for winter 

If it's winter, no one will blink when you walk around in a woollen beanie. It'll keep your head warm too! Surf shops are a great place for beanies, and Etsy has some nice ones too.

3. Scarves / headwraps - for evenings and the office

Scarves are a great option for work and evenings, and no need to master scarf wrapping techniques - just tie it on top of a soft bamboo beanie. 

Vintage kantha fabric wraps made by BrooklynRose on Etsy - tied over a bamboo beanie these and other scarves are a stunning option.

Jon Renau softie wraps are a great option too - so easy to put on. Perfect for going out at night and perfect for the office. 

House of Christine also has an amazing line of Turbans that I'm sure would make for an AMAZING look for an office or out on the town.

4. Sun hats with hair

Look for wide brimmed sunhat that have depth to cover the headband. Helen Kaminski make beautiful sunhat that often have the depth you want.

5. Caps with hair (without a hole at the back)

When looking for a cap choose one that doesn't have a hole at the back (usually where a ponytail goes through). I found one without the gap in a surf shop.

6. Newsboy and baker boy hats with hair


My favourite hat during chemo was a "newsboy hat" I'd picked up in Chile a decade ago (the one I'm wearing in my photo with my baby). Unfortunately I have never found another one like it...

Etsy has a great range of beanies, scarves and hats with a hippy vibe - search "slouchy newsboy hats", "baker boy hats" , "berets", "slouchy beanies", "summer beanie", "slouchy hat", "boho head wraps" are some useful search terms. Hat Show also has a great selection of Australian-made beanies, softies, scarves and hats. 

I'm often asked where I got these grey and melange brown/mix beige newsboy hats, and the answer a store called CasualBox on Etsy. It is based in Tokyo - it's their "summer beanie knit hat". Super cute!
