Hat Hair, Don’t Care: Hairstyles That Look Fabulous Under Your Favorite Hats

by sofia montella

Hats are a lifesaver—they keep you warm, shield you from the sun, and instantly elevate your outfit. But what happens when your hat comes off and your hair looks less than fabulous? Fear not! We’ve got you covered with easy-to-achieve hairstyles that work perfectly under hats and the products from The Warehouse Salon to nail the look. Let’s keep your hair looking as stylish as your headwear!

1. The Low Ponytail

3 Hat Hairstyles You Can Do with a Baseball Cap - Merrick's Art

The classic low ponytail is sleek, chic, and hat friendly. Gather your hair at the nape of your neck and secure it with a hair tie. Smooth flyaways with Amika The Wizard Detangling Primer for a polished finish. This look pairs well with everything from beanies to wide-brim hats.

2. Braids for Days

Whether it’s a single braid down your back or cute pigtail braids, this style adds texture and keeps your hair neat. For extra hold and shine, use Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Gel to keep those strands in place, even after hours under your hat.

3. Effortless Waves

Want to look like you just stepped off the beach? Spritz Amika Un.Done Volume and Matte Texture Spray through your hair before popping on your hat. When you take it off, scrunch your strands for those enviable, tousled waves.

4. The Half-Up Top Knot

CC Messy Bun Ballcap

Perfect for messy hair days, the half-up top knot adds volume and style. Twist the top section of your hair into a small bun and secure it with a hair tie or pins. Add a spritz of SUDZZFX Airplay Designing Spray to keep it looking fresh.

5. The Side Braid

A side braid is a flirty, feminine option that fits snugly under most hats. Start at one side of your head and braid your hair over your shoulder. Tame frizz with Sexy Hair BIG Weatherproof Humidity Resistant Finishing Spray, and you’ll look effortlessly chic.

6. Straight and Sleek

Sometimes simple is best. Straighten your hair with a heat protectant like Amika Blockade Heat Defense Serum before wearing a structured hat. This minimalist look screams sophistication.

7. Loose Curls with a Beanie

And more updated beanie styles are surprisingly feminine-looking with long  hair...

Add some bounce to your locks with loose curls that peek out from under a cozy beanie. Use Hot Tools Pro Artist 24K Gold Curling Iron for easy styling and finish with Amika The Shield Anti-Humidity Spray to keep curls intact.

8. Natural Texture and Volume

TRESS — Hats for curls

Embrace your hair’s natural texture! Apply Shibui Volumizing Mousse to damp hair and let it air dry before putting on your hat. The result? Effortless volume and a carefree vibe.

9. The Sleek Bun

CC Messy Bun Ballcap: High Pony or Messy Bun Baseball Hat – LuLu Grace

Keep it elegant with a low, sleek bun. Apply Amika Top Gloss Shine Spray for a glossy, smooth finish that stays put under any hat.

10. The Scarf Wrap

Okay, technically not a hairstyle, but wrapping your hair in a scarf under your hat adds a pop of color and protects your locks. Plus, it’s a super stylish way to avoid dreaded hat hair.
