My mum needs one (had a maligant growth on her head) and shes being really stupid and refusing to to wear a hat - well actully she hasnt got one,

on sunday we had a BBQ and i made her sit there in the heat with a woolly hat on! lol. then when she got too hot i put a tea towel on her head

but i need to get her a hat she can wear on a daily basis,

something she will feel comfatable waering

How about a headscarf rather than a hat? They can be tied in funky ways, and don't make you so hot.

Nice for the beach/garden etc. Wouldn't wear it to go shopping.

It is hard, but there must be loads of people in the same situation...I agree with what you say though, for the 'not too young not too old look' it's a nightmare! Maybe just put loads of sunblock on her head!

big hat thread for someone else with head trouble here - may be some useful ideas.

I think you need to invent something for the 'awkward buggers' and make millions!

Don't be teary stay cheery, that will help your mum more. And if your eyes are blurred with tears you may end up buying a really bad hat! Good luck.
