    Well it's rude to wear a hat and speak to someone indoors.

    Johnny Depp told to drop the hats by Vanessa Paradis

    I completely agree with this. Verbatim.

    Ok I called Bencraft, and Steven was busy, but the guy on the phone was really helpful as well. He told me Panapore straw is paper straw, but in terms of natural straw and panapore, they'll both last as long and it's purely preference. Which now, leaves me back to square 1.. As indecisive as I...

    The only hairstyle I can think of that doesn't need to be styled is having it extremely short, but then I'll have to cut it every week to maintain it.

    Johnny Depp told to drop the hats by Vanessa Paradis

    I agree with this. It's a costume if *I* or anyone else tried to emulate his style. But he practically created it, so I don't see how it looks like a costume; he's not trying to dress like ____ or ____.

    Styling hair under fedora? I usually put some wax in my hair when I don't wear a hat and have it styled.. Now I don't put any wax when I'm wearing a hat cause I don't want to ruin the hat, or get wax in it... When I take the hat off, my hair looks ridiculously stupid. What do I do? I'm sure I...

    Anyone else have a weird forehead shape?

    Not if it was how I described though. Some people may have submarine shape heads. :P

    Anyone else have a weird forehead shape?

    Maybe it's actually slimmer at the sides, so the circumference itself still adds up to the same size.

    Well, girls dig it..

    Anyone else have a weird forehead shape?

    Is the oval we're talking about longer North-South or East-West?

    Johnny Depp told to drop the hats by Vanessa Paradis

    I'm fine with Johnny Depp's dressing. Most people think he's faking the eccentricity, but I don't think so. Having 2 rooms of hats? Buying a hat off a homeless man? No one will go to that lengths to fake this. Also like, the reason why PotC: Curse of the Black Pearl was good was because Johnny...

    Alright, thanks for all your help. (And putting up with my seemingly bottomless pit of questions =P)

    Yeah, I was planning on buying from Bencraft too. So, when I call them, do I just ask for Steven or will anyone in his store assist me just fine?

    I gotcha now. Which brings me to the next question (sorry =p)... Is there a way to tell if a hat is natural or synthetic when buying online, by how it looks etc? It seems to me that most of the hats you told me were Shantung, have this very "uniform" look to them. Almost like it's too perfect...

    That would be an understatement. :P I see now. The thing about me though, is that I've got this mindset that "natural" = better. It runs through the family really; I prefer brown sugar, and I drink organic teas. I guess that kinda carried over to non-consumables as well. Anyway, back to the...

    Sounds good. I'll call tomorrow. They don't open on Saturdays.

    Is the Rialto considered a Panama hat though? The description says that it's made of "Genuine Panama Straw." I'm a little "paranoid" now that "Genuine Milan Straw" isn't all that genuine at all.

    Preferably new. I know Vintage hats are usually better in quality, but I am idiosyncratic like that.. unfortunately. 7 1/8, no price range. I would go straight for a custom made, but I am far too indecisive for that. On that note.. are Borsalino Straws genuine? Also, what is "Panapore...

    Hmm, that's disappointing. Well if I were looking for a Summer hat, what are some reliable makers? I would go for a Panama, but they seem to have 3inch brims, and being short and petit, I wouldn't be able to carry that wide a brim off.
