The concept’s pretty simple. You want to make the gap between conductive elements smaller than the wavelength of the signal you want to capture.
Basically you’re creating a gaussian surface. So the smaller the wavelength from like microwave, the small area of e conductive grid needs to be. If your grids larger than your wavelength then the radio signals can still go through.
This is why a completely enclosed metal box is a very good Faraday cage.
You need a tin foil bodysuit with no openings. Like a bee’s keeper suit. The tin foil hat only blocks the head. The rest of the body which is composed of electrolyte rich water will act as an antenna

tin foil hat 😁

what if i put op’s phone in my tin foil hat? Would it work as a Faraday’s cage?
Only if you seal the hat into a tin foil bag, and ground it
😁
