Hat Head

[moontheloon]

Not necessarily if yer hat is a little roomy...

hair gets in the way of a good fitting hat

Hey! I recently chopped off half of it.

The bottom half, I hope.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Unfortunately hair comes with my head...

When my hair began to thin to the point that it was obvious, I took a Wahl to it and now use the #1 clip every other week.

If I let it grow in, even without wearing a hat, eventually I look like a cross between Doc Brown, Larry Fine, and Bozo the Clown.

Very short hair = no hat or helmet hair worries.

Shave. Thats my answer and I am sticking to it.

Best to all, Short Blading Guy-

Sharp! You two are a sharp couple.

As to hair, when I started shaving my head I had hair growing on the crown of my head. If the hair grew out I would look like the stereotypical friar. That is not a pretty look. Today my hair has thinned greatly. I shave only a "few" hairs.

As I age, seriously, my ears and nose continue to grow. That is decidedly not fair! Really what in the world is this. How in the world has genetics worked to have this be the growing I can continue to look forward to. By the time I am 90+ my nose should resemble Pinocchio, albeit if he wore a proper fedora not that cone hat.

Hat hair, I remember that faintly!


On with the posters query about hat hair avoidance. Best, Short Balding Guy with a continuing to grow nose and ear lobes - Eric -

... Wahl to it and now use the #1 clip every other week.

Ha! That's the same brand I bought. It works great. I use a #2-1/2 around the ears and then work up to a 5 on top and it's still short enough to vanquish worries about hat hair.

I'm well overdue for a haircut, but I stick with the medium fade, shoter hair on top. Cool enough to be cool, or something like that

I too am a head shaver thanks to genetics......never have to worry about hat head and never have a bad hair day......

You are one of the lucky ones.

That's what I started to do. When my hair gets long, it gets wavy and curly and requires gel to tame it (or a blow dryer, which I hate with a passion). I don't want gel getting on the liners of my nice hats, so I just keep may hair short now; even bought a $50 pair of electric clippers to make it easier here at the house.

Now, as stated above by @hatsRme , @EstherWeis and @Bob Roberts , I just run my hand through my hair and it's all good.

+1 me too

Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.

That's close to how I used to do my ex's boys' hair - 6 or 7 up top (depending on the kid) and 2 on the sides and back. Come to think of it, if I had a full head, that's about how I'd do it, too.

My barber, Vinnie, (originally from Abruzzi, Italy) tells me he charges MORE for heads with thinning or scarce hair, because he has to work harder to find it!
Just sayin'... doesn't seem fair at all!

 

[Hurricane Jack]

From a young age I always knew if my genetics followed the men on the maternal side of my family I wouldn't have hair for long, or if my genetics followed the paternal side of my family it would turn white early. I got what I wanted; it started turning in my 30's.

Thanks -- she's definitely the better half!

My friends with tact will say, "Please keep your hat on. You have such lovely hats"
My friends without tact will say, "Keep your hat on, Your hats are way the Hell better looking than your assed up hair"

Aren't they all ??!?
