To keep your space buns secure, use plenty of bobby pins and maybe a little hairspray. You don’t want them coming undone under there!
3. Low Pigtails
Low pigtails are sweet, simple, and totally country. They are easy to wear with a hat because the hair is divided and kept low.
You can wear them straight, wavy, or curled. Adding ribbons or ties at the bottom makes them even cuter.
To add extra charm, tie ribbons or fabric scraps around the elastics at the end of your pigtails. It’s a classic country touch.
2. Voluminous Waves
Big, bouncy waves peeking out from under a hat? Yes, please! Creating volume before putting your hat on is key here.
Use a volumizing mousse or spray at your roots before you style. Curl your hair with a large barrel iron for loose, full waves.
To maintain volume, flip your head upside down and shake your hair out after taking your hat off. You can also use a dry shampoo at the roots for a quick refresh.
1. Classic Loose Waves
This is my absolute favorite for wearing with hats. Classic loose waves are effortlessly chic and look amazing with almost any hat style, especially cowboy hats and fedoras.
They frame your face beautifully and have a relaxed, natural vibe. When you take your hat off, the waves still look lovely, maybe even a little better with that slightly lived-in look.
To get natural-looking waves, try using a curling iron and leaving the ends out. Or, braid your hair loosely when it’s damp and let it dry for soft, easy waves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Got more questions about wearing hairstyles with hats? Don’t worry, I’ve got answers! Here are some common things people ask about keeping their hair looking good under a hat.
How do I prevent hat hair?
Preventing hat hair starts before you even put the hat on. Make sure your hair is totally dry. Damp hair is more likely to get flattened. Using a little dry shampoo at your roots can help absorb moisture and keep volume. Some people swear by silk or satin hat liners too!
What products help hairstyles last under a hat?
Lightweight products are your friends here. A light-hold hairspray can help set your style without making it stiff. Texturizing spray can add grip and volume. Avoid heavy mousses or gels that can make your hair feel sticky under a hat.
Can I wear extensions with these hairstyles?
Absolutely! You can wear extensions with most of these styles. Clip-ins work great, just make sure the clips are secure and positioned comfortably under your hat. Tape-ins and sew-ins are also fine. Just style them along with your natural hair.
