A head-covering device comprising a resilient, adjustable liner, a deformable fabric crown removably attached thereto, and means for removably attaching said deformable fabric crown to said liner, wherein:

• (a) said liner is comprised of an outside surface and an inside surface and is a single strip of flexible, resilient plastic which is substantially U-shaped and which is comprised of a spaced crown, a right arm and a left arm integrally joined to each other, an integrally-formed downwardly-extending cheek piece attached to each of said right and left arms, and a slot separating each of said right and left arms, wherein:
• 1. said liner has a uniform thickness of from about 0.032 to about 0.375 inches,
• 2. the internal side-to-side width of said liner is from about 4 to about 9 inches, the internal end-to-end length of said liner is from about 6 to about 11 inches, and the ratio of the internal length to the internal width of the liner is from about 1.1 to about 2.0, and
• 3. the width of said slot separating said right and said left arm of said liner is from about 0.125 to about 1.5 inches;
• and
• (b) said deformable fabric crown consists essentially of a knit fabric which fabric consists essentially of acrylic fiber;
• and
• (c) said deformable fabric crown is contiguous with both said outside surface and said inside surface of said liner and completely covers said outside surface and said inside surface.
