Running around with no hat as a kid caused regular sunburn to the scalp, and with my moms history of skin cancers (none fatal) , I have no desire to increase my risk.
I meant for no reason other than "they like hats". Not a good enough reason!
Thought...why not let your hair grow longer and then you might not need a hat.
Just kidding...it's a personal decision and I am only venting. (sorta)

I keep telling my boys they're in for a shock. My hubby still has a full head of hair at nearly fifty; his brother still has a full head of hair (and a pony tail) at nearly sixty.
My brother, OTOH, was so balding at 21 that someone mistook him for my dad's brother.

Eldest son maintains he has completely rejected any pertinent genes from my side; time will tell. :D:
