Default Bald Battle with the Sun

Not only do us baldies have to battle with worry, bullies, low self esteem, embarrassment, we also have to battle with the elements.

Right....can anyone help me....

I need bald head protection.

1. Suncream. Are there any top notch suncreams out there that are good enough to stop our heads from burning?

2. Hats. I look like a right knob in a cap. I look good in a beanie but they are not designed for hot weather. For all I know there may be some kind on thinner beanie that can be worn in the sun without your head sweating like crazy? What other hats could I try?

Can't vouch for it myself (I'm not bald), but other people recommend this product:

*you* think you look like a knob only because you never wore them with consistency in the past.

I think I look weird, but unless the hat is just wildly not fitting right, its your own perception of yourself and those who have never seen you with a hat but have otherwise.

I grew up in the southwest in the U.S. and spent most of my days in the sun with no protection so now I'm a little crazy about sunscreen cuz I don't want to look like an old baseball mit when I'm older so I use this:

Should work great for the head, I use it on my face and it doesn't clog pores and is not greasy or heavy. 100 spf should keep you from getting burned
