Comfort Cotton

When you’re buying a baby hat, keep comfort in mind. Try to find a hat that is made from a soft and washable material, such as organic cotton. As you know, babies have a way of dirtying everything so the easier it is for you to wash, the less work you’ll have to do. Cashmere is great for comfort but you’ll be spending a lot of time and money at the dry cleaners to maintain that type of hat. Not a good idea at all, really, as the cleaning will leave a residue of chemicals in the fabric and will transfer to the little head.

You can also look for hats with straps or ties to keep the hat on your baby’s head. Even if your baby is too young to take the hat off, they can still squirm around and before you know it, the hat is over his or her head face.  It is important that baby hats not be tight and putting pressure on the delicate bones of baby’s head.
