Sauna Terms Guide: What Is a Sauna Hat?

One item we highly recommend noticing when attending an Aufguss event is the sauna hat. A sauna hat is a special hat worn during sauna sessions, usually made of felt material.

The Origin and Purpose of Sauna Hats

The sauna hat comes from sauna traditions in Northern European countries such as Russia and Finland. In these regions, wearing a sauna hat is a common practice to help protect the head from excessive heat in high-temperature sauna environments.
By wearing a sauna hat, direct heat exposure to the scalp can be reduced, making sauna sessions more comfortable and allowing guests to enjoy the sauna for a longer period.

The term itself became widely known in Japan through the direct translation “sauna hat.” Today, it is a familiar item among sauna enthusiasts and is increasingly recognized within the Japanese sauna community.
