Advice on hats!

I think I will be having my HT in May (FUE) and hope to go back to work as soon as it is recommended as safe but I don't really want to broadcast the fact that I have had a procedure so I have been on-line looking at hats.
It looks like beanies would give the best head coverage but are they ok to use following an HT? In my line of work any hat is acceptable and I am also thinking porkpie and baseball hats would be good in May when it is warmer.
I'm not so keen on bandanas.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!

A baseball hat is the best option for the first week after your Ht, I'd prefer it over a wool hat as your head sweats more with the wool. Baseball cap can be worn loosely.

For me an adjustable Nike dry fit. It allowed my head to breath and it barely felt like I was wearing a hat but provided all the coverage I need.

Baseball caps can be worn immediately after surgery as long as you're careful putting it on and taking it off. Wool and beanie types are fine a week after surgery. What does a pork pie hat looks like?

Janna a Pork pie hat is similar to a trilby.
