Nammu hats were designed as sun-protective swim hats. To protect your and your loved ones’ head while actively swimming, playing and being in the water.
That is how originally we market these swim hats when we had the nammu idea in mind.
Soon enough through our valued customers, we discovered that nammu hats are actually much more than just any other swim hats. Because it is designed as a cool fitted bandana that sits tightly on the head no matter what activity you choose to engage in, nammu sun protective swim hats answer many till then, unsolved problems our varied range of customers encounters.
For example, as we found out nammu swim cap provides a great solution for swimmers, water lovers and active fun enthusiastic with cochlear implants (A cochlear implant is a surgically implanted neuroprosthesis that provides a person who has bilateral moderate-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss with sound perception and an opportunity with therapy for improved speech understanding in both quiet and noisy environments.). When in the water the extrarenal device sits behind the ear in the waterproof aqua bug. The aqua bag protects the external cochlear implant device from getting wet and damaged, but it also makes it unstable behind the ear and thus falls while in the water resulting in a lack of hearing in and under the water. Nammu swimming hats hold the covered device securely in place behind the ear while in the water. It also looks cool and therefore helps with the self-esteem of the person who wears the cochlear implants and of course provides our original intent of sun protection in the water. This is how one “simple” swimming hats provide at least 3 benefits in one.
Oh, but there is more… from our valued customers we also learned that nammu helps people with Alopecia areata (Alopecia areata is a disease that happens when the immune system attacks hair follicles and causes hair loss. Hair follicles are the structures in the skin that form hair. While hair can be lost from any part of the body, alopecia areata usually affects the head and face), as well as chemo patients who lost their hair during treatments. Naturally, their scull is super sensitive to the sun’s harmful UV rays. Covering their head while outdoor in or out of the water is crucial. When they are wearing nammu bandana hats in the sun, it not only protects their head from the sun radiation but also supplies confidence and helps with their self-esteem, to look “just like anyone else in the pool or at the beach”. Yet again small hats BIG advantages!
