Black people receive a lot of flack for publicly wearing bonnets, so I don’t want to be insensitive. I have severe sensory issues and things like satin, silk, etc are the only safe materials for my head.

Edit: will wear something different. I am just doing my best to not be culturally insensitive. I will look for a different style of hats; this question is about appropriation.

    There’s probably a good chance you would come of as more mocking than quirky tbh. It’s not like it’s illegal though. I’m guessing you mean the shower headcap looking thing?

      Yeah, something like that. I usually just wear the ones that look more like hats like these ones, though

        Ya, those look fine to be honest. I wouldn’t worry about it.
