Five head-turning hairstyles for your hats

We all know how horrible it is to be caught with the dreaded “hat hair”. So, we have compiled some ideas on how you can style your hair to complement your hats, so that you will never need to take your hat off!

Read on for more tips.

1. The “James Bay”: Wide-brim fedora/bowler

We can’t all have English singer-songwriter James Bay’s gorgeous long hair, especially when it takes forever just to maintain that silky softness in our humid weather.

 

If you have long hair, however, take a style cue from James Bay. If not, start with clean, blow-dried hair. You can choose to either wear your fringe down, like this:

Or, you could go with your hair all pushed back into your hat, if you are going with second-day hair. Warning: this look may not suit guys with a higher forehead, because it emphasises your face shape drastically.

 

 

2. The “Cara Delevingne”: Wide-brim Fedora

Nothing says chic more than a fedora perched on your head. Instead of letting your hair down, try a messy side bun with some loose wisps of hair.

Or, just section a part of hair and fishtail-braid it, pin it back, then place your pretty hat on top of your head. Easy.

3. The cool kid: Snapbacks

Take this tip from us: stop wearing your cap backwards. With freshly washed hair, slick those locks back with gel (heavily), and then position your cap on top. This ensures your hat doesn’t fly off, too!

4. The laid-back skater: Slouchy beanies

Beanies simply spell “sexy”. To complement the beanie’s slouchy style, show off some fringe. Don’t forget to position your beanie atop your head before you style your fringe, though!

Another look to try with beanies is to have your all hair slicked back. Warning: this look only works if you have a square-shaped face or a strong jawline.

5. The girl next door: Beanies

Girls and beanies? Hell, yes! Most girls wear beanies with their hair down, but add in some beachy waves and you’ll look so fab.

 

 

Another way to wear beanies is with side buns, because it’s cute!

Or, you could just braid everything. Side braids, fishtail braids, pigtail braids… The list goes on. Find a great tutorial for a headband braid here. Don’t be afraid to experiment!

 

Now go forth and apply these skills in real life. Good luck!
