Slouchy Beanies to protect hair in cold weather?

[Solitude]

Okay, so it's getting colder outside and I am thinking about buying some of these little slouchy beanie hats.... Are they good for the hair or could they cause set backs from the rubbing all day? What about if hair is left moist underneath??

 

[1QTPie]

I have a couple. I have a hard time keeping them on my head. Mine are knitted, they look like the ones Beyonce/Rihanna wear all the time.

They slide right off my head all of the time. lol

But I only wear them for style, not for any other reason. Air flows right through those suckers.

That material would rip and tear at my delicate napps even when bonelaxed. Cute hat but I would wear a silky scarf underneath.

I wear them when my hair is twisted underneath and I don't feel like showing the twists if they're raggedy. I'm really not sure about moisture and friction, but I think you should be ok since it's not like you're sleeping in it and rolling around with it on your head all night.

I wear these all the time and have never had any trouble w/damage or the like.

Use a couple bobby pins horizontally to secure in place I love my snoods and berets!

I don't think so. They are knitted...I just bought 2 today and they are made out of acrylic! surprise, surprise. I thought they would be wool.

Hmm...good idea. I'm thinking that maybe I could wear my satin bonnet underneath. It would be hard to see under the black one that I bought. Thanks.

This is where I get all my beanies and hats. I wore them all last Winter and never had a problem with my hair drying out

Thanks for the idea!! I crochet so I will try to find some silk or satin-y yarn and make some of these for myself!

I just bought some but I lined mine with satin....since it's a close knit it doesn't matter...but I'll prolly do it if I get some more open knit ones too

I freakin love this website! I get into trouble browsing through all those lovely mass quantities of loveliness. Very affordable (cheap shipping too) and it took like a week for me to get my stuff, even though I'm in the States

This ain't a beanie, but I could definitely cover one of my afro puffs with it!

I have three of these that I got off of ebay. They all have drawstrings so I can adjust the tightness so it won't fall off. Most of the time I wear a satin-like fabric underneath.

I wear one every day I wear a black one and have my wig underneath (I'm really paranoid about people seeing my part, or rather, the lack of it). Before I wore a wig, I would wear a satin cap underneath, and just align the band with the slouchy hat. I think they're adorable. I wore it for an entire winter last year with no damage.

 

[empressri]

I wear my satin bonnet underneath my little hats. Keeps your head toasty!

Hi there,

Do you mind me asking what seller you purchased them from?

tia,

I just talked about this on my blog. My best friend made me a tam that I love. I wear a silk scarf underneath.

 

[Pooks]

I started rockin these pretty much every day since the cold weather kicked in. They tend to be made from drying fabrics (wool, acrylic, etc) so I always have a silk scarf underneath them, or a headful of AO HSR and a plastic cap!

 

[dlewis]

These are cute. Let me check out ebay.

 

[CaliDiamond]

I usually put my hair in two twist, put on my satin bonnet, then top it off with the knit hat. Works every time when I don't feel like doing my hair.

 

[dlewis]

Do you think this would be ok for summer? Not to hot?

 

[Leeda.the.Paladin]

I wear some like these in the summer, but they are usually lightweight material, not the wool or heavy weight yarn I'd wear in the winter

I like it because it keeps my hair off my shoulders and neck when it's humid out.

That's cute! I just don't like having anything on my forehead when it's hot though.
