Please recommend one you love. I apparently have a big head and I feel like nothing fits me. The ones that do are not stylish. I basically want it for reading on a lounge chair at the pool.
I don’t have any suggestions because I have the same problem. I have never found a hat at a store that fits (unless it’s an adjustable baseball cap). I do have one sun hat, but it’s definitely not fashionable. It’s more like a 360° visor because there’s no top. But it’s adjustable, so it’s better than nothing in certain situations.

I got mine in France so I don't have a link to the exact hat, but I'm sure that you can find something similar here. It's a straw visor and the back is velco and adjustable. a.co/d/8xJlASI
They pack really well, and everyone that I've had borrow them (I always bring an extra hat when I know it's going to be really sunny out to share) likes them as well.
I have a cheap version fromAmazon of a hat like the one jane6672 posted. I do not have a big head but I like that it’s so adjustable, and I can put my hair up on top of my head if I’m in the water and have it not get in the way of the hat.

I have a small head (basically kid size) so I too have a hard time finding hats just for the opposite reason you do.:-p
I have to buy large child size bike helmets. Looking for a motorcycle helmet took several stores to find xs.
If anyone is looking for a very frumpy, but effective, packable, and fast drying, and adjustable hat the Sunday Afternoon Ultra Adventure is good. (Although, as mentioned above, that company does have some more stylish hats.)
I second this. I've had it 4 years and love it. I've packed it in a suitcase 5 or 6 times and it still looks great. No hat has ever fit right, and the L/XL is perfect.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who has never found a hat in a store that fits!

I'm just a baseball hat kinda person, so I buy them whenever I come to the US (they are my preferred shape and somehow they aren't the same in the UK).
I’m not the pinnacle of fashion (see recent post) but it’s flexible enough to pack and the material is not likely to fray like some beach hats do.
I have this one in khaki. Love it.
Speaking of getting older, I HAVE to wear a hat now for extra sun protection, not to mention for the tretinoin I use on my face regularly. An influencer I follow on IG showed how she packs a sun hat that's not rollable. She puts it upside down and just packs around it. I tried it and it works great and didn't take up much room and my hat wasn't bent out of shape.
