How does one become a hat person? I like hats. I like to try them on. I like to buy them. I think I look pretty okay in hats. But I own three hats (of the non-baseball cap, non-winter kind), and I NEVER wear them. Even when I think, “Hm, I could wear a hat with this outfit,” I NEVER choose to wear the hat. A big reason why is because I’ll have hat hair. I already suffer from lack of volume. Wearing a hat makes it SO much worse (and adds a big dent all the way around my head). How to hat people avoid hat hair? Do they have perfect hair that doesn’t flatten down or show weird ridges where the hat hits the head? Is there a trick? Do they just never take their hats off?
Maybe I’ll figure it out this fall. I’ll try it. Maybe. If I don’t, my hats are going away. Why move with hats I don’t wear?

I’ve wondered exactly these same things. I think people (women) who wear hats keep them on so you never see their hat hair. In the old days (and in period movies), women coordinated their hats with their outfits just because of that. I guess they were just used to it, but I find wearing hats inside just too annoying and confining.

You either like to wear hats or you don’t. If you do, you learn to comb your hair after you take one off.

Maybe I’ll shave my head! Then I won’t have to worry about hat hair.

I’m almost there.
