Don't let fear of hat hair make you go naked on top. In cool weather, a hat helps prevent loss of heat through the top of your head. In all weather, it shades your head and face from the sun. 
- Billed caps: Great for most weather, the bill helps shade your eyes. Available for under $10 anywhere. Personalize with your favorite team, shoe company, walking club patch, or wild colors and patterns
- Knit/fleece caps: In cold weather, a knit cap keeps both head and ears warm. It is also hard for the wind to blow off your head.
- Boonie hat: The military has some good ideas for head coverings, and the boonie hat is versatile for many weather conditions. They are crushable, stuffable, can be waterproofed. The Tilley hat is a nicer variation.
- Visor: Shades your eyes but lets the top of your head see
 the sun. Many styles have a built-in sweatband.
- Hood: The hood of a nylon jacket helps to keep you hat (and head) dry.
- Tilley Style hats: The ultimate in sun protection and elements protection for your head
