Do you wear a broad-brimmed hat?

I wear a baseball hat every day but it offers limited protection over my ears and neck. How do you protect those areas?

  1. I use sunscreen on my neck, ears daily. And the only hats I have cover those areas. If you check the Solibari, Amazon websites they have lots of hats to choose from that offer good coverage. Search for sun hats. I only buy those with UPF protection. I’m sure I’m not making a fashion statement in my broad-brimmed hat—every day—but protecting my health is more important.

    1. Check Collibar’s website too. They sell sun protective clothes, hats, etc.

  2. I have about 5 legionnaire hats with flaps all the way round to back of head from Amazon. I still get abuse from strangers and name calling but I really don’t care anymore. I’d rather be protected from the sun and safe!

    1. Stay strong! You know what you need to do to protect your skin, and you are doing it.

  3. Yes, others don't have to live in your skin. Please stay strong and protect yourself. Scott skincancer.net moderator
