I ride my bike everywhere. I have to have a clean appearence when i arrive to work so to take care of the helmet hair i keep hair styling cream in my locker. I keep a hat on the luggage rack for when i go out on the town. Call me vein but i would rather not look like a dirty Harley rider... Haha yeah i just said that

Wow. I just tuck the bill of my cap under the seat strap and sit on it. Take off helmet, bend the bill a bit pop it on, lock down the helmet and I'm good to go. Got just enough hair left to look like Larry Fine when I get off the bike. wwwwubwubwubwub. eeeeh wise guys.

Doesn't your hat smell like old man's ass then?

 I wash my ass every day, then put on underwear and pants. So to answer your question, maybe.

I went bald. That is how I took care of the problem.  You need to be more committed to the solution.

Just carry a hat.  Toss it in a saddlebag, sit on it, stick it in your jacket, strap it to the handlebar - whatever works on your bike.

I used to ALWAYS carry a cap cause my hair looked stupid when the helmet came off.  Now I wear it very short plus I don't care as much.  It's called getting older - who really cares.
