This may be a weird helmet question...

Feb 27, 2011 17:38

So I haven't ridden since October due to a terrifying school schedule (and I volunteer and work 3 jobs).  I usually take the winter off anyway so was excited by the way the weather has been warming up recently.  Was shopping today thinking about how I need a new helmet when I realized my predicament.

I had decided over the winter to grow dreadlocks.  They're now in the 3rd month of development and I wasn't thinking at all about possible helmet issues!  Obviously, there is no way I'm NOT going to wear a helmet (hello there, previous skull fracture and broken nose).  Has anyone here ever ridden while sporting a set of dreads?  Any tips as to how to work with helmets?

I'm looking at a 1/4 size bigger but just putting the helmet on pulls on all my hair and since they're so tightly threaded together it has already given me a headache.  Suggestions to reduce hair pulling? 

safety, helmets
