![](templates/subSilver/images/full_size.gif) Poster: A snowHead
|
I have very long and quite thick hair, and I find that I can't wear it in a ponytail or single plait as it gets in the way of the collar on my jacket. The only option seems to be to wear it in two plaits, which isn't really me and is a nuisance. Does anyone have a helmet recommendation that is suitable for someone who could pass for Cousin It? I don't have this problem with either my riding hat or cycle helmet! Thanks

@doclaura, my helmet has a 'pony tail port'. My sons both have very long hair, one with dreads and one very thick and quite curly. Neither of them have complained about their Smith helmets.

A friend puts her hair into two plaits but then bends them up and tucks them under her goggle strap.

I use a flat hair dip as it spreads the thickness more then a ponytail. Then I put on a balaclava. Yes, it's a mess at the end of the day. But I'm past the apres bar phase of life.

What about a speed skiing helmet... or just vast, VAST quantities of hairspray?
