    Please dont go for a half face helmet. You dont want anyone to end up with half a face in case of an accident. I know,because I have been through this.
    Trust me,it's not a good experience.
    Get a modular helmet in case you are keen on riding half face.But make sure that you close the lid once you ride for long stretches.
    Helmets are a one time investment. Spend some money and buy a decent one.It's not like you buy a helmet everyday.If you can afford a bike,you can afford a good helmet.

      of the tiny minority of women that do wear a lid , its a flimsy half-face helmet that that they buy just to escape the law .as it is majority of women dont know how to ride/drive properly .
      they also go for helmets that are smaller so it fits in scooty compartment cos they dont wanna carry a larger one and the better ISI ones usually occupy a bit more space.

      Traffic police are also indifferent and they NEVER stop a lidless lady .if they start fining females im sure atleast some of them will start to wear a helmet .

        Even if they do stop a girl, she will start crying or something... making a scene. I've seen it happen.
