i always suspected helmets cause hairloss . so maybe all those helmetless riders do have a cause

Keep helmet clean and regularly wash hair . dust and no ventilation i think aggravates hair problems

I would vote for the option, Leave Biking...


ANyways, you can wear a Bandana or a cap on your head and then wear your helmet..
Avoids contact with your hair and is hygienic as well..

There is one particular medicine(tabs) for hairloss named Trichoton. My Aunt used them and said that its quite effective. Even i suffer from severe hairloss. I have a decreased hairline and my hair density is also very less. But i dont bother much as for me Biking is of more importance.

Hair loss due to helmets? That's a new one. Maybe people are blaming the lids instead of their genes. I have been riding for the past many years, and I think I have grown more hair instead of losing them!

I have a helmet with a completely removable liner which I clean once a month. In case people are actually facing a hair loss problem(due to lids), a poor quality helmet and lack of hygiene might be the issue. If covering the hair led to hair loss, most of our brothers in Punjab would have no hair due to constant use of the turban! I lived in Punjab for many years and I noticed that Punjabi's have a far lesser incidence of hair loss as compared to people living in other states. (from what I saw).

Maybe wearing helmets prevents hair loss!

Turban is very light.. I think hair loss is due to constant weight of helmet on hair and heat .
I know one of my cousin, he uses the most poor quality helmet. and has no hair loss.
as gene is considered, non of my ancestors had hair loss.
my dad and grandpa has more hair than me.

Hair loss among males is a normal phenomenon.. for many (majority, i would believe), who aren't so lucky genetically, it gets worse as one grows older. Reversing the process according to me is not possible.

Your genes (and maybe stress as well, all our netas are baldies aren't they..??) are more responsible for hair loss than your poor life saving helmet. The dust and pollution on our roads is probably worse for your hair.


According to me, Helmets leading to hair loss is nothing but an Urban Legend.

Even then, if one might be so concerned about a link between helmets and hairloss, here are a few pointers which might calm down nerves and still keep a lid over his head.

1. Many helmets these days come with a removable and washable inner liner.. keep the inner liner clean by washing it in a month's time (if not every week)

2. Wearing a Bandana before putting on the helmet (la Segwag / Ganguly style ) is another solution.
