But Not a Mesh Hat

Protecting yourself from the sun is not always as simple as wearing a hat, contrary to popular belief. While hats can offer some level of protection, it’s important to note that not all hats are created equal.

Opting for a thin or mesh hat may not yield significant results in terms of sun protection. In such cases, you might find yourself with limited coverage, as the thinner materials or gaps in the mesh can leave parts of your head vulnerable to sun exposure. In essence, relying solely on these types of hats may leave you with protection only in the areas where the hat has thicker seams, leaving the rest of your head susceptible to the harmful effects of the sun.
