I've got a bit of a thinning hair/alopecia thing going on so tend to wear hats - as protection from both the sun and from stares and for my own mental wellbeing and confidence when out and about.
However up until now I've been mostly wearing a couple of baseball caps that my baseball cap loving OH no longer wanted - and I just don't really think that's me.
I have an extremely small head - XS motorbike helmet size is still a little loose on me for example - which makes hats that have a stiff/millienered (if that is a word) shape or a brim really difficult, as they either slip down over my eyes or a slight breeze will carry them away - if I am down by the river doing my bird monitoring it is normally a bit windy and any breeze will snatch my stupid cap away, also the peak is annoying when I am also dealing with sunglasses and binoculars!
I think I might need to get into the beanie game for self-confidence and head coverage/protection. Any suggestions for those or anything I haven't considered would be welcome - needs to be available in xs sizes, as we are moving into summer I am looking into summer headwear rather than a wooly hat (in fact I am allergic to wool) and preferably very cheap (no £40 designer stuff please, I am definitely in the £5 price bracket)
