helmet advice for lots of hair

[David Goss]

I had long hair since I was 16 and now I am 40 and just got it cut. Best thing I could have done to be honest. Not getting your hair caught in twigs is just so good! Still can't get used to not having to pull the ponytail out of the tshirt when I put it on though

Other than getting it cut you will just have to live with helmets not fitting, I had the same problem for long enough.

is a big head of hair the reason why that italian biker died the helmet just sat on his hair and not close to his skull

how do you know hes not got a shaved head underneath that lid!

 

Or maybe his dreads are fastened to the helmet, and come off after work!

Cut your cat yaks off and glue them to the underside of your helmet, that way you can still have your hair and be comfortable at the same time, win win!

How do you keep dreads clean doing tree work... That's not a dig but I had to cut mine off about six months in to my tree surgery career as they just got full of saw dust and twigs!

A friend of mine had a poplar ring chucked on his head,he was not wearing a helmet despit continually being told to do so.. as he kept his dreads covered under a hat, they definitely broke the fall though!

Hair cut. Long hair and arboricultural/forestry work just don't mix. Can you imagine the resin build up if you were working with softwoods regularly?!

Do not listen to them! Most blokes are follicaly challenged so they have not experienced long hair! What is it with the yoof of today anyway, I see many blokes who could have a full head of hair and the have their nut shaved!

The tide is on the way out on my head now, so I cannot speak knowledgeably on long hair, it go to a supplier or helmets and get their advice.

 

Dreads. How do they grow anyhow? Do they smell? Does it hurt your bonce sleeping on them, what does your Mom think to them?

i think rossi accidently ran into the back of his head, then the helmet came off

I'm pretty sure this is an oxymoron
