This one goes for all you baldies out there....

Hi guys,
well i am kind of ashamed of this question but...

is there any kind of cap you might be able to use for surfing?

You see i rock the Kelly Slater hair style.

Not because i want to... but because i need to :oops:

I love just how rashies help you not getting sunburned, so i was wondering if there would be something similar that you may be able to wear to cover up your head from the sun.

My scalp is pretty burnt so i was wondering if there was something ou could wear that wouldnt drift away. besides obviously sunblock.

Thanks

Plenty of the SOF (sumner old farts) wear surf hats, wide brimed rather than the baseball cap type...

Hey mate, I've got the same haircut as you - it's the most rocking style in the world :lol:

Anyway, the solution is simple, spend as much time getting shacked as possible 8)

I simply can not bear the sun. I have a variety of different hats and caps.

This one is my favorite:

(note: is a very thin fabric hood)

Here is a web page that offers several at one location:

(note: not every hat on the page is a water hat)
