Ponytail-Friendly Hats: Choose Stylish Hats to Wear with Ponytails 

If you ask any person with long hair, they will likely tell you that having to wear your hair down on a hot day is the worst feeling ever. What’s probably also at the top of that list is having your hair in your face while running, playing sports, or running around after your kids, dogs, or simply - life.

That’s why ponytails are a godsend. 

But how can you combine ponytails with proper sun protection? Not all hats support ponytails, so does that mean you have to forsake one or the other? 

No, not at all.

Luckily, there is a plethora of hats to wear with ponytails that will save you the hassle of having to squish or lower your ponytail. Here are our favorite picks for ponytail-friendly hats. 

Let’s jump into it!

Caps 

When most people think ponytail-friendly, they think baseball caps. That impulse is good, as for a long time, they were the only ones who actually had the space to pull a ponytail through.

Nowadays, there are even more options when it comes to caps, as some new models allow even high ponytails to be worn, with their slits being positioned much higher up on the cap.

Aside from that, there are also caps with extended visors whose main focus is added sun protection.

What’s more, if you aren’t a fan of how caps and hats in general feel on your head or you get too hot, there are caps made with extra perforation to allow your skin to breathe.

Bucket Hats 

These hats have experienced a popularity resurrection in the past few years, to the joy of many. Their laid-back, fun look, combined with protective benefits allows for a great experience even for those who aren’t fans of hats.

They are mostly more comfortable than caps, and they come in a lot of styles and patterns, ensuring a pick for everyone.

Though, for a long time, there was no way for them to be worn with ponytails. Nowadays, there are Velcro options that allow you to pull your ponytail through and stick the hat back together.

Sun Hats 

Sun hats are a stylish, sometimes even high fashion option for ladies and all those who want to keep their outfits on the highest level of elegance while preserving their skin from the harmful effects of the sun. 

What gives them an edge over other types of hats is the fact that they usually have a wider rim, which provides protection for, not only the head and face, but also your neck, and potentially even the decolletage. 

However, they have been incompatible with ponytails, as they cover the entire head. To the joy of many, manufacturers have started to make sun hats with a space at the top to allow you to pull your ponytail through and still enjoy wearing your beloved hat!
