Which Cap for a Big Head?
"I have a big head, so what?"
At Ayoun , we say it with humor and style: when you have a big head, you often have big ideas. And it would be a shame to let them go unnoticed under a cap that's too small, right? So today, we're rolling out the red carpet (or rather the black visor) for you for a complete, useful, and uninhibited guide: which cap should you choose when you have a big head?
Spoiler alert: there are plenty of solutions (and styles) to avoid the "I stole my nephew's cap" effect. You'll finally be able to breathe, be yourself, and above all: shine . Because at Ayoun, we don't crush heads full of dreams, we protect them. With panache. To understand the essence of the brand and what it stands for, take a look here: Why Ayoun .
Why do some people need plus size caps?
The answer is in one word: morphology . Some people have a larger head circumference than average, whether it's hereditary, post-traumatic (surgeries, bumps), or simply genetic. And honestly? No problem. Besides, it's not a question of weight or general size: you can be as thin as a fishing line and have an impressive melon diameter.
But when you start struggling with a snap or end up with a red mark on your forehead every time you wear a cap... it's time to move up a gear: the plus-size cap . No more caps that are as tight as size 34 jeans after an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Plus Size Caps: A Real Need, Not a Whim
No, it's not a fashionista fad! A poorly fitting cap is like shoes that are too small: you can pretend, but you suffer. And what's more, you ruin your flow.
Wearing a cap that's too tight is a surefire way to get a headache, constant discomfort, and, let's be honest, a downright dubious look. At Ayoun, we offer styles designed for heads full of style and ideas. Our philosophy?
Don't adjust your head to the cap. Adjust the cap to your head.
And that's revolutionary. Or just logical. But in any case, it's necessary. If you want to dig deeper into the subject, take a look at Le Journal Ayoun , our blog full of good vibes, stylish news, and useful advice.
Morphology: choosing your cap according to your face
Thought it was all about head size? Think again. Here's how to match your face shape and cap style for a 100% match.
1 - Match the cap to the face
- Round face : Avoid caps that are too rounded. Opt for a loose fit with a straight visor. This creates a more angular line that structures the face.
- Narrow face : a more fitted cap, such as a fitted or curved cap, will highlight your face shape without making you look too flat.
- Square face : choose a slightly rounded or rounded cap to soften the angles.
- Heart-shaped or inverted triangle face : Flat caps balance the width of the upper face.
2 - In terms of form, the idea is to counterbalance the striking features
- If you have a square jaw, a rounded cap will soften the angles.
- If you have a high forehead, consider models with a long visor.
- Pronounced cheekbones? A flat cap or a wide-brimmed cap will balance things out.
Basically: think balance , not mimicry. And above all, trust yourself. Your vibe will always make the difference.
The advantages of special caps for large sizes
- Maximum comfort : no more need to loosen the strap to the max or end up with pain on the temples.
- Assertive look : you no longer look like a baseball player who stole his little brother's cap.
- Boosted confidence : you're no longer hiding behind your hat, you're showing off. And that's Ayoun-style.
- No marks on the forehead : no more sausage effect. We want a sharp, not compressed, style.
- Adaptability : some large sizes offer ultra-flexible adjustment systems (Velcro, snapback, etc.).
And if your cap also protects you from the evil eye , like Ayoun's, it's not just an accessory. It's an ally.
Why are men more affected?
It's simple:
- Men have a wider skull on average.
- They wear caps more often than women, in everyday life, during sports, when going out, etc.
- The traditional market standardizes sizes... often on a too narrow basis.
The result? Many men struggle to find THE model that combines style and comfort. At Ayoun, we want to break this textile injustice. Because a man with a big head isn't a problem. It's a statement .
The importance of accurate measurements
We can't stress this enough: measure your head circumference ! A simple tape measure, just above your eyebrows and ears, and you'll know if you need a classic size (54-59 cm) or a large size (60 cm and up).
And no, it's not a luxury. A well-chosen size is:
- more comfort
- better fit
- a cap that doesn't move in the slightest gust of wind
In short, it's the assurance of a style that stays in place. And of a happy forehead.
Trucker models: the benchmark for large heads
Ahhh, trucker caps ! Mesh back, straight brim, deep cut. They're THE go-to for big heads. Why? Because they:
- Provide more depth at the skull level,
- Easily adjusted thanks to their snapback closure,
- Do not stick to the scalp (thanks to breathability),
- Have a rigid structure that maintains a beautiful visual shape.
And at Ayoun, they also have that extra touch of soul (and humor): embroidered messages that pop . For you, your vibe, and all those who dare to look at you sideways.

How to wear and adopt a cap when you have a big head?

2. Own your style
You're not just "the one with the big head." You're the one with the snapback cap . The one whose vibe enters the room before him . And that's priceless.
3. Take care of your outfit
A well-worn cap is an accessory with character. Pair it with a sleek outfit for a modern, assertive look. Don't overdo it. Let it do the talking.

Having a big head is not a problem.
Choosing the wrong cap , yes.
