Different Types of Headwear in Minecraft

Appearance is an important aspect for any player, especially in Minecraft. By default, you can only add new armor, change skins, capes, or find elytras, but overall, there aren’t that many customization options. That’s why developers of third-party add-ons create various types of modifications to expand the possibilities for any player. And if you’d like to change at least your headwear in the game, we recommend checking out the add-on described in this material. It offers very simple and straightforward functionality with many options to choose from.

The Cake's Cosmetics mod adds several dozen hats to the game, each belonging to a specific theme. For example, you can find Christmas hats, headwear in certain styles (pirate, farmer, certain animal types), and much more. Each item has its own crafting recipe, but to make all the hats you’ll need a new device – the “sewing table,” where the entire interaction process with these items takes place. This allows you to diversify not only the appearance of players but also slightly enhance the gameplay by giving you more possibilities in the game world. Ready to try something new?

In the vanilla version of the game, the only option for changing your appearance is armor. There are also pumpkins and mob heads, but that’s hardly what you’d want to wear on your character, right? Armor provides a certain level of protection, but sometimes, for a special event, you want to dress up, gain a new experience, and stand out from the crowd, especially on multiplayer servers. This is where mods like this come to the rescue, adding many different hats to the game. In this article, we’ve shown just a few options, but there are many more, giving players a huge advantage: you can choose, craft items depending on available resources, create unique displays, sell, trade, and so on.

To create new hats from the Cake's Cosmetics add-on, a sewing table is used. You craft the new item and then use the internal GUI to make various types of hats. We’ve provided a few recipes for you, but you’ll see most of them directly in the game. It’s recommended to install JEI or similar mods to quickly view the recipe for any selected item. For example, most hats require string, some materials, wool, and much more. Players can also craft hats in different colors, giving you even more options. They don’t have any special stats, and that’s the only downside for players.

It’s important to understand that hats in Minecraft cannot replace regular armor (helmet). If you put on a hat, you need to compensate for the lost protection with other pieces of armor to defend against mobs and avoid taking too much damage. However, if you can safely move around the game world or a specific biome without taking damage from mobs, then you can wear just the hat. There are several types of headwear available, ranging from large to very small. They all serve only one purpose: to make your character look good, so they are purely cosmetic items.

A simple walk around the game world will now be much more enjoyable since you can always pick a hat to match your style. For example, if you have mods for pirate ships, you can add a pirate hat to fully match the theme. There are plenty of different options, and the developer of Cake's Cosmetics constantly adds new hats in subsequent updates of the mod. The crafting cost is low, and most items can be crafted even early in your survival, although they don’t provide any protection, which is definitely a downside.

You can’t enchant the new types of hats in the game: they are meant to be used only as cosmetic items. However, there are several mods in Minecraft that change the mechanics of armor, allowing one set to be used as a decorative element displayed on the character, while another set provides protection with all its stats. This is a really cool option for players, so it’s worth trying out to see how your gameplay changes overall. In the comments, you can share which hats from this mod you liked the most and which third-party add-ons for armor or appearance customization you use in your build so other users can take that experience into account and try something new too.
