Make sure your hair is completely dry

It sounds obvious but if you put your hat on wet hair you’re going to create some funky looking new style when you take it off!

Choose your hat carefully

A coarse beanie will frizz up your hair more than a smoother one — which is why cashmere, silk, or angora are the best picks.

Make sure your beanie fits

The tighter the beanie, the worse the hat hair.

Reduce static

Reduce static by making sure your hair is nice and moisturised before throwing on a hat. Cutting back on heat tools helps with this, as does a good hair oil or moisturising cream.

Style your hair pre-hat

Try a low ponytail or loose plaits to minimise the dreaded hat hair.
