Do you like to wear hats or caps? If so, what kind?
« on: May 26, 2019, 08:48:12 pm »
Do you like to wear hats or caps, including hoodies and hoods?  If so, what kind?


Of course I would wear something covering my head if it was cold.
But sometimes they can simply be fashion items, or good to wear when it is sunny.
Some wear a cap to sleep.

I sometimes wear a hat or cap, do you?  For fashion, practicality, or both?

Be a good example of good behavior.  Always be kinder than needed.  Be tender to others.  You are as beautiful as the thoughts you think and the words that you speak.   Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding.  Knowledge and action shown without love is not impressive.  If you look for the good in people you will find it. Healthy relationships are so important to good living.  Serve others.

Good living, joy, unity, love, and happiness can come from following these practices: Never let selfishness or conceit motivate you.  Regard others as more important than yourself.  Do not limit attention to only your interests, but include the interests of others. 

It is not usually about how fast you transition, it is about how well you transition.

I've  been wearing a wide brimmed hat whenever I'm out in the sun for the past few decades.

I got a new one with a hole for my ponytail!

I wear a hat for un protection (the very wide brimmed beach type heads.  But most of the time I don't like to wear one because it messes my hair up.

Lately, I've been wearing a lot of hoodies. I love the snuggly long sleeve ones. Although this is not typically very "ladylike", I have been into the tomboy look lately. I love to go full-glam or comfortable in a hoodie or sweats whenever I want to.


As far as caps goes I got a Gucci canvas baseball cap that I love to wear under my hood. A lot of people consider this boyish, and it is, but I think this look can be really cute on all girls. What matters is what you feel comfortable in!


Hats – you never see Queen Elizabeth II without one :D
We have berets, bucket hats, flat caps or straw hats.

My personal favourite is the straw hat. They are big and can make your head appear smaller. I always bring my straw hat with me if I am travelling to exotic countries.

As it is getting cooler in some spots in the USA, are you starting to wear outdoor hats or caps again?

Hate hats, always have, used to get scared theyd make me bald.
And they are so very masculine in the man's world, same as watches, always was a very masculine thing that your parents would buy for occasions and they where always so manly and chunky, now I have developed an odd dislike for these things I would never where one.

I never got in the habit of wearing them for a couple of reason. I spend a good deal of time indoors and  the tradition I grew up with says that you don't wear a hat indoors. The other more important reason is I wear an extra fat head - - err extra large so a normal cap or hat doesn't fit. The one size fits all don't work because the bottom may be large enough to take my head but the top still is sized for a regular head. This cause the hat to hat to pop off the top of my head and I feel I will lose the hat with any movement.

I have acquired a palm hat that I reserve for when I might receive a great deal of sun exposure but the hat hasn't really seen any use yet. There are hats I really like and they are the ones displayed at the Kentucky Derby. Will I ever own one, probably not because I don't have any place to wear it. 

On the other hand, nature has provide me with a mop of hair. I don't really need a hat to protect the top of my head so I get along pretty well without one.

I have a million of base ball aps, but never really liked to wear them (most of them were promotions or from ork events, etc.) I also grew up learning that the hat comes off, once you enter a building.  For me to wear a hat, it had to be a really cold winter day in Minnesota!
Now that  live in the tropics, I thought it would be cool to wear a wide brimmed sun hat.  I own there of them, and still don't like to wear a hat.
I dislike hoody's very much, I never would wear those, because the mess my hair up way to much!

I get really bad bed head. If I don’t wash my hair in the morning it looks really messy. I look like this when I get up:

So, if I need to do anything in the morning before I shower, I look like this:

I am unashamed to admit that with transition I’m looking forward to wearing all the cute hats that women get to wear. I am very old school with my tastes and particularly like cloche hats, pretty outdoors hats suitable for picnics and the like, and pretty much any hat that’s in the TV series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (amazing costumes in that series...seriously). It’s time to bring back fashionable headwear - it’s such a great accessory!

Oh and I still like wearing caps for running. And honestly I like wearing caps when I’m trying to lay low when going grocery shopping. And I have a functional nylon outdoor hat for hiking (waterproof, sunblocking, foldable, indestructible) and a have nicer-looking Tilley hat for less strenuous walks.

When I get back into tennis, I think I’m going to transition from caps to visors.

I used to wear baseball hats every single day. So much so that if I didn't have one on people would ask what's different about me. I'll still wear one occasionally if I have to go out somewhere before I take my shower and fix my hair. But other than that I never wear one anymore...unless it's cold and I'm wearing a hoodie. Hoodies are one of my very favorite articles of clothing, so in the winter time I guess you could say that I've almost always got a hat with me.  :laugh:

I like hats.  But wearing one over a wig is problematic: not many are big enough, and taking it off when you go indoors can be risky.  The one in my avatar pic is big enough to wear over the wig.  I still went to the washroom to take it off.

If I am not wearing a wig, then a hat is essential except at home, due to my male pattern baldness.  I wear a ball cap in summer, or a tuque in winter.  I have been on long walks, where I was wearing a ball cap, and stopped in to a restaurant for lunch.  While I was taught that only farmers and hillbillies wear a hat at the table, I had no choice but to keep mine on. :(

I like knit caps and thick knitted scarfs.

Cool weather lets me wear these cute keep-warmers.   :)

I like the knitted caps with a pom on top too.
With a matching scarf, they are nice accessories in cooler weather.
I sorta dislike having to put all of these up when the weather warms up.

But in warmer weather, there are skorts and shorts days!   :)
