No, I don't have lice.

When I first put on a hat, it doesn't itch. Then 30 minutes to an hour later, without fail, no matter what hat, my head itches.

And itches.

Am I the only one?

I get it too. But usually the itching goes away pretty quickly, only coming back for a bit when the hat comes off again.

Even when my head was shaved bald it itched, so I don't think it has anything to do with hair either.

My head doesn't itch when I wear a baseball cap, but otherwise I'm scratching like a rabid cat.

Yes, especially baseball caps.

I wear a hat for one of 2 reasons:
1) to block the sun
2) to block the rain
edit:
or 3) Because I couldn't be bothered to comb my hair

Your head is probably sweating.

From the hat.

It's the opposite for me, it only itches when i first put it on but then it goes away after a little while.

Hats are evil. [Mad]

I have a hat made of rather scratchy material, so I know it's the yarn; I think it's partly wool. But it's from Norway and is a kick-ass hat, so I'm alright with itching. Besides, if it's cold enough, I don't even notice it... I'm too focused on trying to be warm.

That used to happen to me all the time. It was sweat. I've learned to carry a hankie and dab off my head every once in a while.

I can't wear hats. My head is about a size 8½, and hats are only made up to size 8. Thank you so much for bringing it up! [Cry] [Frown] [Cry] [Mad] [Cry] [Grumble] [Cry] [Frown]

Really, he feels bad enough about not getting hats to fit as it is...

He must be brimming with disappointment.

It sounds like the big hat store just might fit the bill!

My head is also tragically large. I wear about a 7 3/4, which might be OK if I were a man and wanted to wear manly hats, but womanly hats are another story. They're so cute and pretty and demure and never ever big enough. Even stocking hats I get are too small.

Sigh. I suppose I shall never be truly elegant.

On a related note, I secretly wish it were socially acceptable to wear a hijab even if you're not Muslim.

Annie! [Kiss] Why aren't you on AIM? *Inquisitive Look*

Ohh, hats, right. My head certainly itchs after waearing a warm, winter hat, but I love wearing them anyways, though I hardly ever do since it's tough to fit under a helmet.

Oh, right. AIM. I kind of forgot I had AIM.

and now you're gone.

I'm at an engineering meeting for an important presentation. Ohh what the heck, you're more important. [Kiss]
