So I'm in the exam room

waiting for my doctor to arrive and I notice he has this photo framed:
Nice photo from one of those 1950s Time-Life photographers, Margaret Bourke White. Never heard of her but anyhow it got me thinking about how EVERY single man wore hats back then and I wondered how people would deal with hat head. I know when I take a hat off my hair looks fucked up--how did an entire generation deal with this affliction on a daily basis? Or was it not an issue because every guy's hair looked fucked up?
