How do you rejuvenate a felt hat?

After cleaning, steam the area using a teakettle, pot of boiling water or steamer. Hold the area of the hat you just cleaned in the steam for 20 to 30 seconds to restore the nap. Reshape your felt hat by using steam; this will make the hat soft and pliable. Hold the hat over steam for about 1 minute.
