Don't you have a hat-to-head? At Herman Headwear, we want to prove you wrong. There's nothing better than a hat to perfect your figure. Here are some tips for adopting the model that suits you based on the shape of your face.


If your face is oval,

then you clearly have a hat-to-head! The oval face is said to have a "perfect" shape in its proportions. All choices are allowed : capeline, panama, trilby, pork pie, big edge, small edge ... So you can easily find a hat that fits you; the whole thing will be to adapt it to your style.

If your face is round

A fedora, a borsalino or a trilby are choices that can highlight your face. If you have long hair, you can let it hang under the hat which will give the illusion of lengthening your face.  You will choose a hat with a short edge ideally or a hat with straighter lines, as opposed to the rounding of your face. Last tip, if you wear your hat slightly tilted, you can give a feeling of height to your face.

The ideal is to wear the hat on the back of the head. Models that are made for you: the loose cap,the panama the fedora.
