YES, WOOL. IN THE SAUNA.

Why wear a hat in the sauna?

Ever leave the sauna because your head felt too hot, even though the rest of your body felt fine? That's what the hat is for.

How sauna hats work

The hottest air is up high.

Heat rises, so your head is sitting in some of the hottest air in the room.

The wool does the work.

Wool is a natural insulator. It's why we wear wool hats in the cold to slow heat loss. In the sauna, thick wool felt works the other way, slowing heat from reaching your head.

Enjoy the sauna, not the countdown.

When your head feels more comfortable, you can relax and enjoy your session at your own pace.
