Huge head - need help!
I have always had problems finding hats big enough to fit my big melon and usually have to settle for ones that just sit high on my head. Will be 👨🦲 in a couple of weeks and have found 4 turban type things that fit but the wig stocking I tried was far too tight and advertised bamboo caps to wear under hats are at least 3 to 4 cms too small. I will need a soft wide brimmed sun hat that will come right down over my head as well. I am not one of you beautiful young ones who rock the no hair look so this isn’t making it any easier to face up to the inevitable. I would love to hear from anyone who has the same problem and has found a solution. 😘👒

- NefertariMemberI'm like Blossom, thought I had a big boof head until I was bald and then everything was too big.
My new hair is so thick it looks like a shag pile rug, hoping that goes back to normal soon. I just had it shaved again, Im liking the look or getting used to it? Turbans were good and I had a couple of scarves that were pre tied or easy to tie, I bought most of them from ebay, even one of those was too big when I lost my hair, it fits now I have hair again. - SisterMemberI never used a wig stocking so I wouldn't worry too much about that. Most of the time, I wore beanies or scarves (given to me or picked up in Op Shops) - there's some great videos on how to tie them but I had a couple of easy ties that I could do without fuss. I only wore a wig when I wanted to fly under the radar.
- Brenda5MemberI just used adjustable mens baseball caps. If I wanted I could pin a little flower to it or tie a bit of a scarf around it but i never bothered. Believe me, you will want something on your head in the cold section of Coles and Woolies.
- jintieMemberI used scarves. Worked well!
- lmh0603MemberI buy men’s bucket hats online for my everyday hats. Kooringal men’s hats for nicer hats.
- Blossom1961MemberMen’s hats are often available in larger sizes
- kamadaMemberHi @Blossom1961! That would be nice but I am not hopeful because I wasn’t exaggerating about my boof head! 😂 I will definitely try again after the hair is gone if nothing else turns up though. Thank you 😘
- Blossom1961MemberHi @kamada All the hats I bought ended up being too big once I lost my hair. It is amazing how much bigger your head is with hair. Once the hair is gone, you may find hats that fit perfectly.
