Roll a soft towel into a ball and stuff it inside your hat to help it keep its shape. This is especially useful for hats that have gone limp after washing, or if you do not have a container on hand to rest your hat on as it dries. [17] X Research source
Plug in a blow dryer and turn it on your hat on the lowest/coolest possible setting. This will hasten the drying process if you’re short on time.
