Sunhats

[Rainbowsandmiracles]

Wasn’t quite sure where else to pop this but does anyone have any good ideas about sun hats - I feel a bit of an idiot wearing a sun hat to work (I often work outside with children) but at the same time my scalp is burnt to pieces and is peeling (it’s itchy to the point I through I had head lice but turns out it was just sunburn) a cap would be to causal but any ideas welcome!

Blimey, be careful! I’ve bought a couple of straw type summer hats in Monsoon before I think. I take them on holiday. I love hats! There should be some nice options around now.

Get a nice outdoors-y one - I've had a North Face one with a wide brim before, and I've got one from a different company now.

I love the look of those big Korean sunhats, with the very broad brims - not sure how good they'd be for the 'eyes in the back of your head' awareness that you need for children outdoors, though!

If you are wanting the children to wear sunhats outside in sunny weather, then you definitely need to lead by example!
I love these sunhats, they feel very cool to wear and scrunch up in a bag without going out of shape.

I have a big head and curly hair so either hats don’t fit me or I get hat hair.

So I’m a repurpose-a-brolly-as-a-parasol woman.

I love a Panama style hat! Wide brim ones will also protect your face and neck.

I always wear a sun hat because skin cancer in my family. M&S do simple bucket hats with spf50 in them. My brother got skin cancer on his scalp! Wear a hat!

Faces, scalp and ears are all common spots for skin cancer. Please wear a hat outside!
