A tanning cap for protecting the hair of a wearer from damage due to exposure to ultraviolet light emitted from a tanning apparatus. The tanning cap is a hair covering consisting of at least one layer, with an interior cavity or inner hollow space, and having an adjustable opening which allows the head of a wearer to access the interior cavity or inner hollow space. The layer(s) may be crafted from material(s) that is(are): reflective; insulating; screening; diffusing; breathable; or a combination of any such materials. The size of the tanning cap opening which allows a wearer's head to access the interior cavity or inner hollow space is adjustable. The tanning cap opening consists of a "band" and a closure mechanism. The size of the tanning cap opening adjusts as a result of adjustment of the closure mechanism along the band. The "band" encompasses the full peripheral edge, or circumference, of the cap; creating a non-stretchable, non-elastic peripheral edge. The "band" being created from stitching along the full peripheral edge. The closure mechanism is comprised of two pieces, or tabs, being of hook and loop arrangements and/or hook and loop strips and/or being comprised of a drawstring mechanism. An adjustable tanning cap opening allows the cap to transform to fit the head of the wearer thereby offering a one-size-fits-all approach.
