Head Shaving, Grooming & Care > How To Protect Your Bald Head
Hats in the cold dont stay on!
Junglerot:
Heya guys, What do you do about hats sliding up off the dome. I don't generally wear a hat, but I live in Seattle and sometimes the cold, the wet and the wind get to me and I put on a beanie. It slides up off my head and looks stupid. Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone solved this for themselves?
I did try one thing, I got some crafting cloth paint and made "friction pads" inside like the ones on the bottom of no-slip slipper socks. It didn't work; I just ruined my hat.
D.A.L.U.I.:
Well, there are some disadvantages to a very nicely shaved dome in the morning--I just keep tugging it down. But I only wear them in freezing weather and I live in the deep South. At the home office of my company, upstate NY, it's a problem in the morning, but by evening, there's enough stubble to hold on to it. Can't have everything in life, can we????
Junglerot:
No, I guess we can't. I am sure not going to stop shaving!
Razor X:
Shave just before bedtime instead of in the morning. You should still look bald when you leave the house but there should be enough velcro on your dome to keep your hat in place.
Antimidas:
I second what RazorX says. By shaving at night, I have just enough stubble to hold the hat on firm the next day.
Of course even at 35 degrees, I have often gone without a hat this season. My head is getting more accustomed to the change in temperature.
Another thing I have done is forget the hat altogether and wear a hooded sweatshirt under my jacket for when I just can't stand the cold wind on my head.
