Cooler Heads
Cooler Heads is a headgear shop in Booyah Base run by Annie and Moe. It appears in Splatoon and Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass.
Description
Cooler Heads sells headgear items that can be purchased with cash, which come with their default primary ability, default number of ability slot(s) (Splatoon) or star power (Splatoon 3), no experience, and empty secondary ability slot(s).
There are six (Splatoon) or nine (Splatoon 3) unique headgear items at a time, which are randomly chosen among eligible items and cycle at midnight according to the system clock (Splatoon) or UTC (Splatoon 3). In Splatoon 3, Cooler Heads shares its daily stock with Naut Couture and Headspace: purchasing an item in one of the headgear shops removes it from all other such shops.
The availability of shop gear by initial star power is based on the player's level. In Splatoon 3, gear items exclusive to the catalog need to be obtained from it before they start appearing in Cooler Heads.

In Splatoon, owned headgear cannot be repurchased from Cooler Heads. In Splatoon 3, each gear item can only be bought once per day, but owned items can be repurchased, which gives the following options:
- Replacing the owned item with its brand new duplicate (with default primary ability, default star power, and empty secondary ability slots), with the same price as buying it for the first time.
- Upgrading the owned item's star power to the next one, which costs cash depending on its star power.
