Hat: Wack Attack?

So sometime last spring, I went on a winter clothes sale-shopping blitz at UO and ended up with some stuff that I can only just recently wear out of the house. I don't do super well with hats (okay, I hate hats), and this one hat in particular has been confusing me. Until I realized...it is meant to be worn like this:

Only I have a lot more hair than this dude. I would hope the hat looks like this on me:

But my hair isn't quite that long. It is actually sort of an awkward length/texture right now!
At least I can be sure of not looking like this sickly bro:

or this fella!


But I do have a real advice issue here: how does a medium-length, wavy-haired person wear these hats? It looks too much like Erykah Badu when I put my hair back before slouching on the hat, but when my hair is down it's just fuzzin'. What do ya do!?

i think with medium length hair you either risk looking like a dude or just go hatless. you can also buy earmuffs and scarfs as a substitute.

hey, this is called a "beanie". i have one that somebody made that I swapped with on etsy. i have yet to wear it out though.
i still prefer the traditional "tobogan" (sp?)

you should post pics of you wearing it various ways and let us vote which looks the best!!!

mannn I think Susan is right. might have to give up! and wait til next winter when I'll have made a decision to either let my hair be long or keep it short. but by then these will be outta style (they are sorta outta style now)!

OH WELL. let's do a post about winter hats/hair, though.
