    Default Wearing hats and baldness

    Is it true that wearing hats makes you go bald? More specifically say your wearing it backwards and its pulling back your hairline or is even that a stupid myth?

    NO,, hats DO NOT create balding. No worries

    The only possible exception is extremely tight caps that cause traction alopecia, which has nothing to do with genetic hair loss. Just don't wear your hat too tightly and you will be fine.
