Truly, there’s no place worse than your scalp to get a sunburn (okay, there are probably worse places but I have to be a bit hyperbolic here to make my point). You can lather up your hairline and part, or you can invest in a stylish hat that will keep the sun’s harsh rays away from your follicles. We’ve rounded up a handful that you can get on Amazon and shipped right to your door before you hit the beach.
The wide brim on this hat means you’ll get the most out of your sun protection. It has an adjustable drawstring and velcro so you can keep it on your head even on the windiest of days.
This versatile hat comes in seven different colors so you could easily get a few to keep around. It has mesh panels for breathability, sweat-wicking capabilities, and UPF 50 protection.
This is the perfect hat for someone that tends to trek in the sun. It’s packable so you can throw it right into your bag without worry and it’s water-repellant for any time spent in a summer storm.
Another packable option, it’s UPF 50+ and foldable with an added touch of style thanks to the bow. The interior can adjust to the right size and the chin strap is detachable to keep you comfortable.
Even on the hottest of summer days, this cotton mesh hat will keep you cool. It’s breathable and packable but still gives you the UPF 50+ protection and a 3-inch brim to keep your skin protected.
Get yourself a hat that does both. This convertible option gives you the versatility to change your beach visor into a beach hat in seconds. Just zip the included top, adjust the velcro, and enjoy a sun-free day.
