Fitted quite snugly, I have a large head and hair too. If it could be made larger, with adjustable pulls inside, like the cotton bucket hats, it would be even better. That's why I gave 4 stars, not 5.But I am very pleased with it.Covered completely, brim gives attractive frame. I like brims, as I am troubled with dazzle. Quick delivery, I live in the UK. I haven't tried washing it yet, but it looks simple. I wish you made more ghats in larger sizes.
