Founder Friday | It's official — Summer is here☀️
Hi Hairbrella Family,
It's official — Summer is here☀️ Last weekend I kicked things off the way I always do… by heading straight to the lake and playing captain for the day. 🛥️
Atlanta is coming in HOT, expected to reach 98 degrees by next week. I remember back when temps like this were an event... not a season. Now it feels like 95 degrees starts in late June and doesn't let up until October. And let's be honest, 95 really feels like 105 down here.

Growing up, my grandma lived in McIntyre, Georgia (right outside of Macon), and while the heat was no joke, I’d still be outside running around with my cousins all day. But now? Listen… I need a whole arsenal to be outside for more than an hour.
That’s exactly why the Hairbrella Sun Hat has become mysummer ride or die (literally, lol). Whether I’m on the boat, at the beach, hiking, or just running errands — this hat goes everywhere with me. I designed it because I realized… traditional sun hats just weren’t built for us. And it’s wild — I was looking back at photos from last summer and realized I had already started getting sunspots. Proof that this sun is different. It made me so glad I had already created the Sun Hat — because now, keeping it with me at all times isn’t optional... it’s necessary. |
So, the checklist was simple (but not really):
✔️ UPF 50+ protection — because the sun isn’t playing anymore
✔️ Satin-lined — gentle on my braids, edges, and curls, no friction, no breakage
✔️ Waterproof — perfect for rain OR boat splashes (because Lake Allatoona doesn’t care about my outfit)
✔️ Ventilated panels — so I’m not sweating bullets
✔️ Adjustable crown + chin strap — because I’ve lost way too many hats to the wind out there
And let’s not forget… It’s cute. Like real cute. 💁🏽
