So what’s this big mystery?
How to wear your hair when riding a motorcycle, or at least finding a way to keep it under control.
Sometimes it’s the smallest problems that can cause the biggest problems and take us out of our comfort zone.
Most guys probably don’t worry about it to much (I don’t) but it can be an issue for women. My wife struggles with her ‘do’ every time she puts on a helmet.
The struggle between hair and helmet began hundreds of years ago when humans made the decision start wearing stuff on their heads. Mostly to keep their skulls from getting crushed.
Today, years later, how to wear your hair when riding a motorcycle (still talked about here) still plagues humankind. Whether you’ve got long hair, short hair, medium length, curly, wavy, straight – when it comes to hair helmet, all us biker chicks and dudes are in the same boat – or motorcycle.
For women, trying to figure out how they are going to fit all that hair into a motorcycle helmet (more) comfortably, make the helmet fit right and still look presentable when they they take the helmet off can be a big problem.
When dealing with helmet head, here are a few options. Some are simple and others a bit more extreme – How far you go with may depend on how often you actually ride.
For superheroes, Edna Mode says, “No capes!”
For women riding motorcycles, your best modus operandi often is, “No buns!” Buns are a surefire hair-don’t when you’re riding a motorcycle for many women, especially for those who wear their hair super long.
Why?
Because your bun will be super big, and that means your headaches will be super real.
Okay, maybe ladies with shorter hair can get away with it, but for those of us who sport longer styles, all that hair piled into one big scone underneath a helmet will only push into our heads, and that can cause massive pain, especially if you’re on a long ride.
A better idea is to put your hair in a ponytail or pig tails beyond the bottom of your helmet. That way, the only things up inside your helmet are hair and your head.
And while you’re at it, no heavy, non-aerosol hairsprays either.
Spraying your hair with aerosol hairsprays before you ride can freeze it into that flattened mess that happens all too often when you’re riding.
And it’ll make it sticky, too. Instead, start your ride without any hair product at all. That way, when the helmet comes off you’ll be able to freely run your fingers through your hair and work it into place. Or better yet, carry a little conditioner with you.
When you get to your destination, squirt a tiny bit into your palm, rub it all over your hands and fingers, and then work it through your hair and style as usual. It’s almost like you just washed it!
Of course, this doesn’t mean to physically ride your motorcycle upside down. It means, for those of you ladies with medium-length or long hair, secure your hair up inside your helmet while you’re upside down.
Bend straight over when putting on your helmet. Gather it together with something that won’t take up too much room up inside your helmet, such as a scrunchie or other soft, stretchy headgear that will stay in place.
Then tie it all up on the top of your head and ride. When your ride is over, again bend over to take off your helmet. When the helmet is off and the scrunchie is out of your hair, do your most serious hair flip from that bent-over position. Talk about volume!
If you’ve got masses of curly hair, keeping that soft, windswept look can be tough for lady bikers. In this case, going without gel may not work for you. In fact, it could be that just the opposite that works best.
Fluff and volume often can be added easily after a ride to flattened-out straight styles, but once curls flatten it can be difficult to plump them up again. Try using a holding gel that will keep your curls from flattening out in the first place.
Even a few spritzes of water can do the trick. Carry a small spray bottle with you and spritz your curls after a ride. As mentioned above, bending over to unflatten hair can help to add volume and make styling more effective.
Some female motorcyclists actually have reported that brushing their hair the opposite way they wear it can work wonders
to avoid hair helmet. When the helmet comes off, comb your hair reverse
of your normal style.
This action can help to fluff up what the helmet has flattened. It can also add volume, bringing your hair pretty much back to its usual fullness.
That’s a good question. When it comes to do-rags, the answer for millions of motorcyclists is definitely ‘do.’ Do-rags and bandanas are still a staple for making your hair behave when you ride – or at least for hiding it when it won’t behave.
In fact, these are the top toppers for avoiding helmet head. They can also lift your helmet up just enough to keep your hair from going too flat.
And you can reestablish your normal volume with just a few shakes of your head. These options, along with stretchy headbands, are also a great way to keep those flyaway hairs in check so they don’t irritate you while you’re riding.
Plus, with the limitless styles available these days, you can ‘do’ it up with style and express who you are all at the same time!
Wraptor hair wraps are a great way for women with long hair to keep hair under control.But they do go well with it, don’t they? Braids are a beautiful, simple, and effective means of saving you from helmet head.
Fishtail, slipknot, wrapter, hair glove – braids of all makes and models are a lovely and appealing way to do up your do while riding your motorcycle.
Braids not only make you look super. They’re sleek, chic, and hassle-free.
If you’ve tried everything and it just doesn’t work, your problem may simply be your hairstyle. In this case, you may want to try a simple bob.
Bobs have been popular forever because they’re a no-hassle style that stays beautiful all day.
Put one of these no-nonsense beauties up under a helmet and you’ve got a simple and stylish way of avoiding helmet head no matter how long the ride.
The bob is such a versatile style that there really isn’t anything a helmet can do to keep it from looking great. And today’s more edgy versions of it go perfectly with all-things biker chick!
Photo by Tanja Heffner on UnsplashThe pixie is another great style that goes well with the road. From Twiggy in the 60s to Madonna in the 80s and Halle Berry in the new millennium, the pixie has gone down through the ages with style.
If you’re looking to chop your top for your favorite hog, a pixie is a perfect style that goes great with motorcycles because, like the bob, it’s a hassle-free hairdo that’s not likely to become a hair-don’t underneath your helmet.
But if it does go flat on you during a long ride, it’s one of the easiest dos to fluff up afterward. Try a little gel or conditioner to add volume or to spike it up for a little added spark.
There simply isn’t any hairstyle that works better for a long ride than a simple pig or pony tail. These styles still top the list of faves for ladies who love to ride motorcycles because they’re a cinch to do up and easy to maintain.
Plus, if you use the right stretchy band to hold a pony or pig tails in place, you can avoid those little stabby flyaway hairs that can get on your face and be so annoying while you’re riding.
If you like your long hair flying in the wind but you don’t intend to go without your helmet, try big rollers when your hair is wet to further straighten your look.
When your hair is dry, use a volumizing spray that will add depth and keep your long locks from getting too flattened out.
When the helmet comes off, simply spritz a light non-aerosol spray directly onto your roots with your head turned upside down and flip it back up. Your hair will be lifted, and volume will be added.
A lot of people probably think helmet hair is a woman thing, but guys suffer from this affliction as well.
Helmet hair is not a respecter of persons; its scourge knows not gender. However, for guys who love to ride motorcycles, the solutions can be a little simpler and a lot more direct.
One of the most effective ways for guys to avoid hair helmet is to simply wait until you get to your destination before you style your hair.
If you need to blow dry your hair, carry a mini blow dryer with you. A simple trick for guys who have bangs is to put the helmet on only half way.
Reach into the face shield and place the bangs where your style requires them to be. When you put your helmet on the rest of the way, it will hold them right where you want them.
Short haircuts aren’t a must for guys who ride bikes, but they can help to keep you from looking like your helmet is still on even after you’ve removed it.
A close-cropped or buzz cut is one of the simplest methods of avoiding helmet head. If you like to use a little gel or other product on your hair, wait until you get to where you’re going to use it. Simple as that!
No, that’s not a typo of a Taylor Swift song. We really mean it – shave your head!
A shaved head is one of the coolest looks ever, particularly if you’re a bike enthusiast. Some of the hottest, sexiest guys in Hollywood have shaved heads.
Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson, Bruce Willis, LL Cool J – you just can’t argue with class and style.
But add in a motorcycle, and you’ve got sex appeal that never quits! And, well, shaving your head may just be the quintessential biker’s answers to helmet head.
If you don’t want to shave your head completely, try using one of the lower settings that will maintain a hairy look without all the hair.
If you’re a dude who loves your bike but you also love your long hair, a modular helmet may be the answer for you. Modular helmets effectively protect your head, but their open-face style won’t flatten your hair quite as much as a full-face helmet can. Alternatively, you can use a three quarter helmet with a face shield (like the HJC IS-33) to accomplish the same purpose.
They offer a little more give, and that means you can pull the sides a little further away from each other when putting it on.
This will aid in enlarging the head opening, and that means the sides of the modular helmet won’t flatten your hair nearly as much as the other kind.
Are you considering just getting rid of your bike altogether because you’re sick of that hair helmet you’ve been sporting? That’s crazy and completely unnecessary!
If all else fails, wear a hat. Today’s stylish toppers are a great way to avoid helmet head.
I always travel with a ball cap in my tour pack so have something to make me look presentable in public if I stop to grab a bite to eat.
If you like the look but you haven’t tried it yet, a bandana or do-rag is just as cool for men who ride bikes as it is for women. In the motorcycling world do rags are pretty much the norm, I always keep one on hand.
Of course, baseball caps never seem to go out of style. The relaxed beanie may be the way to go, but you might have to secure it on with something. And, believe it or not, classic hats like fedoras are back in style for men big time.
Of course, wearing a fedora fall into the ‘can you’ vs ‘should you’ discussion.
Can you wear a fedora to cover up helmet head? Yes, you can.
Should you wear a fedora?I don’t recommend it.
That is unless you’d like to attract a lot of attention to yourself from other riders and look like a pretentious douche. Just stick to a ball cap!
photo courtesy of Watching The World Wake UpIs there an all encompassing answer to the maddening mystery of helmet hair?
Like the question of how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop … the world may never know.
But you’re not the world, are you? You’re just one motorcycle enthusiast who needs a solution to your helmet flattening your hair like a monkey’s.
So try a few of the tips offered here, and you’re likely to land on something that works for you. Seriously, though, do you really care all that much anyway?
Dealing with helmet hair is a bit of a pain because we’re all a little vain in some way or another. Don’t spend too much time worrying, the open road awaits!

Any of the options will take you no more than a minute.
Place the bandanna on any horizontal surface, straighten the folds. Fold the fabric in half diagonally to form a triangle.
Footage: @Sasha Kirpan / YouTubeLift the bandana by stretching it at the two corners at the widest part. Throw over your head like a scarf, with the tip of the triangle to the back of the head. Bring the ends that you hold in your hands to the back of your head and tie in a tight knot.
Straighten the scarf over your head, tuck loose hair under it.
This knot is almost the same as the classic one. There is only one nuance: the ends of the fabric at the back of the head should look longer, like a puffy tail.
To achieve this effect, choose a larger scarf. However, it's not just the physical size of the accessory, but also the way it folds.
Fold the fabric into an asymmetrical triangle: not strictly diagonally, but so that one side of the bandana is longer than the other.
Shots: @Maile Akln / YouTubeThrow the accessory over your head with the top of the triangle to the back of your head so that the long “tail” of the scarf lies against the hair. Tie the loose ends into a tight knot at the back of your head.
Tuck the top short piece of fabric into the knot. Straighten the ends, trying to give them the most magnificent look.
This headband also has an elongated tail. But she sits on the head more tightly. To put on a bandana, proceed as follows.
Fold the handkerchief into an even triangle. Holding the edges, firmly press the central part of its wide side to the forehead. The fabric should cover the face. Tie the loose ends at the back of your head with a tight double knot.
Frames: @liborioTV / YouTubeDivide the edge of the scarf hanging over the face into two parts. To do this, simply pull the top fabric towards the back of the head.
Footage: @liborioTV / YouTubeSlightly pull the handkerchief down at the back so that it slides a little over the head, freeing the ears. Now twist the front free edge of the fabric into a tight tourniquet to open your eyes. Fix it under the edge of the bandana, slightly curling the fabric on the forehead.
Footage: @liborioTV / YouTubePass the back free edge of the scarf under the knot and pull it to the maximum length.
Frame: @liborioTV / YouTubeNow try to smooth out the fabric that fits the head as much as possible. Any areas that protrude or bulge should be leveled and tucked under the knot.
If you need more detailed instructions, see it here:
Fold the bandana into a triangle. Then fold over the top of the figure several times to create a strip of fabric 4–5 cm wide.
Frame: @Maile Akln / YouTubePress the center of the fabric to the back of the head, and tie the free ends on the forehead in the form of a flirty bow.
Be sure to play with the placement of the bandana: lower it closer to your eyes, lift it up on your hair, move the bow to the left or right. So you can find exactly the option that will suit you especially.
The ends of the bow can be tucked under the fabric to give the headband a more formal and neat look.
Footage: @Kawaii Pansy / YouTubeMade in the same way as the bow headband. Only the free ends of a scarf folded into a strip are tied not on the forehead, but on the back of the head.
If you have long hair, hide the knot under it. So the bandana will not slip.
Fold the bandana strictly diagonally. Throw over your head so that the wide side of the resulting triangle is pressed against the back of the head, and the tip hangs over the forehead.
Frame: @Maile Akln / YouTubeBring the two loose corners of the handkerchief together and tie in a knot on the forehead.
Footage: @Maile Akln / YouTubeDraw the top of the triangle hanging over the forehead under the knot, and then hide it under the bandana. Also straighten and fix in the folds of the fabric that fits the head, all the protruding parts of the scarf.
A cute rustic option just to protect your hair from the sun. Fold the bandana into a triangle, throw it over your head and tie the ends under your chin.

Good equipment for a quad biker is the health of the quad biker and the preservation of the nerve cells of the quad biker's family (c) the mother of the quad biker.
Seriously, this is one of the first questions to think about when you decide to ride this vehicle.
Helmet. Whatever it is, it will protect you from blows and concussions. In addition to such serious troubles, it is able to shelter you from dust, branches, dirt and precipitation. Its function is very important and occupies a key place in all equipment for riding an ATV. According to the number of closed places on the head, they are divided into three types: open, completely covering the head, covering it by ¾. The more open the helmet, the greater the view opens, but the level of protection, respectively, is lower.
ATV suit is considered good if:
In other words, the suit must protect against moisture, pass excess steam from the body, sit well on the figure, have good thermal protection and wind protection.
