I wear a helmet when I drive. This is the best one I have found (light, doesn't block visibility) but it looks really silly to wear while driving. These kinds of helmets don't look silly to wear when driving, but probably give less protection.

Unlike a lot of people here, I'll actually give some good advice.

People who say "quit being a bitch", obviously never rode regular rides with women. My girlfriend does like to ride pillion, but she does complain that it's hard to look good for an outing. The helmet messes up her hair, makeup, etc.

I have a Coolmax Skull Cap or helmet liner that I bought from the US a long time ago for a tenner. It looks something like this. I like it a lot. Look for helmet liners that cyclists use. For girls with longer hair, they may prefer a buff. In particular, my girlfriend wears stud earrings, and the buff is nice in that it covers her ears. She does look like she's wearing a hijab when she puts it on though.

None of these are really going to perfectly preserve your hair. It's best to also try a better hair product. I haven't used gel for literally decades since it's too crunchy and shiny. For me, gel is a very school-boy thing to use. Wax is too shiny. The best hair product I've used is American Crew Forming Cream which does well in helmets.

I used them and they work great.

However I didn't want to have the ongoing expense, so I got one of those helmet liners that's thin and washable, it does the same thing and I like it. I wear contacts too so I know your pain.

This is the one I got, but they're all similar

Ive had these for almost 3 years now and they have yet to fail me plus they are super comfy.

I'm sorry that happened to you. It's terrible. We're here for you. The most important thing to do is to be as kind as possible to yourself. Do you usually do something related to construction for work?

From what I understand, you have cranial and chest hyperhidrosis. If you’re looking for treatments, there was a discussion in the group with dermatologists a little while back. If you plan on doing construction again, maybe take a look at some of the items below to keep your body a little cooler.

Having a Camelback may make it easier to consume water throughout the day to keep the body cool. I could only find 3L versions.

I've heard helmet liners really help and are pretty inexpensive. You can wet them to keep you cool, and they help to keep sweat from running down your face.

Why hasn't it spread to the first world, say Japan or Australia or Germany or Spain or England or Holland or...etc.

The field is smaller than a soccer field. The equipment is mostly plastic and foam pads, any country can afford this except maybe the very poorest of the poor in Africa. You can get this for equipment for the same cost as a pair of crappy soccer cleats and shin pads.

Also there are plenty more expensive sports that have spread around the world. Why specifically not football, while even yachting is an Olympics sport and an average F1 formula costs $5 million yet gets millions of viewers in poor countries?

Haha damn. here is the beanie I bought. I’m starting to think that was a mistake maybe. I could probably cancel it. Do you have a better option, one that is black?

u/Berrie34 · 1 pointr/PSVR

I am loving these helmet liners cooling helmet . They control sweat but also keep my hair away from my face when I’m putting on the helmet. (I was always getting stray hair blocking my vision even using a sweatband). Plus they are cool compared to the bulky sweatband I was using.

I am thinking of getting of getting this pasgt helmet, these cusions, and this 4 point chinstrap. Did you have to drill 2 holes in the back of your helmet to screw in the chinstrap? Anything else I would need for the chinstrap to be properly installed?
