i'm afab and very fluid in presentation. i have long thick hair that i absolutely cherish...except when it makes me dysphoric. which, recently, is a lot. i've been dealing with it by making a tight bun and putting a beanie over it. that works pretty well, but with me presenting masc ~1/2 the time it's getting old and i'm starting to feel boring. i want to switch it up, but even made as small as possible i have way too much hair to hide in most hats.
does anyone have any advice for other hats that 1. can accommodate thick hair & 2. are not super hard to pull off (e.g. cowboy hats, fedoras) ?

Unfortunately way outside of my experience.... although the fedora comes to mind as a nice fashion statement that crosses boundaries.
Hard one... wanted to make sure you knew we are paying attention ;)

When I was much younger and worked in fast food, I would braid it in a loose braid and sort of twirl it around the top of my head and put it under the baseball cap they made me wear. I couldn't have it look like I had a ponytail at that place.
