Don’t Get Hat Hair: Wearing a Fedora

If you haven’t noticed while out at brunch recently, more and more chic ladies are opting for the fedora.

And why not? It’s a classic fashion staple and looks hot with virtually ANYTHING…except…perhaps, your hair.
Take this luscious Rosette Bow Cloche from Nordstrom for instance.

Many fedoras have a slightly manly vibe to them – this one is more girlie – but still, you need to show your feminine side by styling your hair beneath it. (Rather than hiding/piling your hair like a lot of women may decide to do.)

This is essential in looking like a sexy woman in a hat, and not a woman trying to dress more masculine!

Hair is the secret to sensuality, we already know that. “Many women just plunk a hat on top of their everyday hairstyle. Without much thought to their hair, this will create an unflattering effect, especially if you have long or full hair,” says Suki Duggan, who owns Donsuki Townhouse Salon in New York City.

Suki says that when wearing a fedora, we have several options. “If you want a laid back look, wear your hair down but a little messy. The softness of your hair with the harsh angles of the hat make a great pairing. For a sultry look, drawn hair back into a ponytail or bun underneath the fedora, this makes the focus your face and creates a very sexy look. I love this look for night.”

So, take Suki’s advice and get out your hat (and hat-approved) hair. Bonus? The rain can’t touch you!
