Abstract
An after shower hat is fabricated from a towel-like material. A rectangular piece of the material is folded in half. The open sides are sewn forming first and second seams, and elastic is sewn around the opening to provide a snug fit. The seams are also provided with a stiffening material, whereby when the hat is worn with the seams at the front and back of the head, the hat stands relatively straight out from the wearer's head. This permits the hair to dry without flattening.
