Slightly floppy hats are in fashion. I personally prefer a nice stiff hat so I'm going to keep liking for a sewing or wire tutorial

Thank you! I'm trying to rescue an old paper hat, and didn't know what to do beyond starching. The starch+heat method will (I hope) save my hat in time for my summer trip.

I hope so as well! I did try a new technique with the hats with some wire and my minimal sewing skills. If your hat is thick enough you could try!

And make sure that you get the coated wire that matches the color of your hat. Cut the wire larger than the brimming and hide the excess in the weaving. That’ll make it easier to shape it in whatever design you are feeling that day lol

I like the method using a mixture of 1 part Elmer's glue and 3 parts water. Brush it on and let it completely dry on a flat surface

You might be scared it looks white at first but it will dry clear enough. And if you have a light color hat like the one in the video it won't show up even with an extra coat.

Try running under hot water until totally soaked. Then gently stretch out wrinkles. Lay flat on a folded towel on the floor while smoothing out any remaining wrinkles. Then leave to dry. Oh, I flipped that hat inside out first.

Jeez for heavens sake just go to the local Joanne Fabrics and get some very thin wire and thread your hat brims. Then you can shape the hat for each individual mood you are in every time lol. And the starch won’t flake off on your outfit or your skin.

I had this problem too! I stuffed it full of underwear, rolled up socks, and tried to let it organically loosen itself up when I packed it in suitcases or stored it. It works so-so honestly :/ Give it a try and use your blow dryer to "warm it up". Some heat may make a difference

it's a pretty cheap Amazon iron- not too hot and definitely didn't do any damage to the carpet! that would have been a nightmare, but I do recommend placing a towel down or doing this on an ironing board (I just didn't have one)

You didn’t stiffen the crown of the hat?? I’d think using a styrofoam head or plastic bowl would work as a form- the crown of hat looks bad but rim looks better

Like with shoes haha! They have hat stretchers you can buy on Amazon or the good old hair dryer. Spray with water to dampen, set your blow dryer to high heat and stretch it as much as you can. Hopefully that works out! Sometimes you just have to break it in
