My biggest concern is that i change hair style alot. So i have 2 differnet hat sizes (long hair, short hair). Right now i have a long hair helmet, Does anyone think I'd need a short hair helmet?

@coloricanking it depends on how much hair you have. If when you chop your hair off, your helmet fits loose and moves around at speed, then by a "short hair helmet". I have a hot weather and cold weather helmet. My cold weather helmet is usually one of my older summer helmets because it has packed out and is too big but in cold weather I wear a balaclava that makes the older packed in helmet fit better and it also keeps me nice and toasty warm.

@Tonycalvo1991 There are helmetes approved by Spongebob Square Pants for that

what happens if your head is square?

........... my nose touches the top of the opening of the helmet.

Why can't motorcycle salesmen learn how to properly fit a motorcycle helmet from a video like this, and then just leave the customer to find one that fits their head properly.

I swear so many people have incorrectly fitting helmets that aren't gonna properly save them in a crash, like my friend who has a helmet much too big.

This is so infuriating, I've spent £50 on a helmet that is far too big, now I've spent another £80 on a helmet that isn't quite suited to my head shape, but it's far better fitting than the first one. I'm gonna keep this one, and eventually get another helmet when I have more funds. Funnily enough the guy in the first shop I bought my helmet from said it fits right, and the guy in the shop wher eIbought my second helmet was confident it fits me, but I can twist the helmet forwards so............

I purchased an ICON helmet and it looks huge on my head is there a reason for that? Should I buy a smaller size?
