National Hat Day
Today is National Hat Day! What kinds of hats do you like? There are so many options.
Do you like a fedora, a beret or perhaps a homburg? Are you more on the casual side so perhaps a baseball style cap or a newsboy?
Looking for style? Ladies could try a cloche or pillbox. Gentlemen might like a bowler or a panama hat.
During the winter it’s more important to think about warmth over style for good reasons.
The temperatures can get pretty low during the winter months and by keeping your head warm you can keep the rest of your body warm.
A hat keeps the heat capped to your body. It’s key to keep your head warm and dry. Merino wool and synthetic materials are good choices.
Your body can lose heat in many ways.
Losing heat by radiation is one common way our bodies lose warmth. If you’ve ever done an outdoor winter activity and removed a helmet or hat and you’ve seen steam, that’s radiation!
Your best choice during the long winter months would be a beanie, with or without a pom, pom or maybe a trapper hat. Both are great for warmth.
For people dealing with Raynaud’s syndrome, the cold can really affect your fingers. Having a hat on your head and a warm set of mittens, not gloves, is a big factor in getting through the cold.
Keeping your entire body warm from head to toe is a must if you like to be outdoors. A hat, long johns, warm clothes, socks and mittens all work together to help you enjoy your adventures.
On National Hat Day Private Home Health Care hopes that you put on your favorite hat as you head out the door. We know it can flatten a good hair style but keeping your body warm in the winter is more important. Give your hair a good fluff after!
