It's annoying having hair fall in front of your eyes while riding and it can even be dangerous. There are several ways that women can wear long hair under a motorcycle helmet.
Braid your hair/Wear a ponytail
The most common and easiest way is to braid your hair or tie your hair into a ponytail. It will keep your hair from blowing around in the wind and getting tangled.
Put on a hair sock
Another good option for long hair is try wearing a hair sock. It is a tube of fabric that you can put your hair into before putting on your helmet.
Wear low bun
A low bun is often a go-to hairstyle for many riders because it keeps all the hair up tightly inside the helmet. It is very simple to make low bun, just twist your hair around itself and tie it using a single hair tie. Be sure to keep the end of your hair in the hair.
Wear a Balaclava
A Balaclava will not only hold your hair in place without getting it on your face but also will prevent the cold air from hitting your face.
Wearing a helmet while riding is an absolute necessity, but if you ride, you have probably had to deal with 'helmet hair'. While not a serious problem, it can ruin your look. So, is there any way to maintain your hairstyle while wearing a helmet?
Here are some tips to help keep your hair looking stylish, even while wearing a helmet.
#1 Wear a scarf or bandana under your helmet
This is one of the most effective ways, to save your hair from friction inside the helmet. This method can also maintain your hair's volume and will even keep your helmet pad clean and free of sweat.
#2 Use a hair product like hair spray
Hair products can help keep your hair in place, even while wearing a helmet. But please remember to use a light and high-quality hair product, because a heavy or cheap hair product may do harm to your hair.
#3 Braid your hair if you have long hair
Braiding your hair is both a stylish and effective way to prevent long hair from becoming tangled and looking scruffy after using a helmet. It is also the most affordable option.
#4 Wear a half face helmet
A half-face helmet is more likely to keep your hair looking nice than a full-face helmet. It can also keep you cooler than full-face helmet, especially in summer. So, if you are only riding a short distance, like from home to work, you should consider a half helmet to maintain your hairstyle.
#5 Prepare a small comb
A small comb doesn't take up space and when you get to where you're going, you can use a it to restyle your hair in the rearview mirror.
Are you thinking about buying a helmet for a long trip? It can be a bit difficult to find the right helmet. There are no set rules about which helmet you must use on your road trip, but we have some suggestions for you, so your trip can be more enjoyable.
Generally, there are 4 things to consider when buying a helmet for a long trip:
Fit: The wrong size helmet will give you a headache and can ruin your whole trip, aside from being unsafe. Make sure your helmet fits properly before your trip.
Ease of use: The vents, visors or straps should be easy to operate. There is nothing worse than trying to open a shoddy visor or complicated strap after a long ride.
A wide coverage: The best helmet should offer protection against anything that should come your way during the trip.: rain, wind, sticks, rocks and other debris.
Great Ventilation and Streamlined Design: You will wear the helmet many hours each day during your trip, so it'll help if it has great ventilation and a streamlined design. Good ventilation will keep your head cool in hot weather and can also help keep your visor fog-free in wet or cold weather. A streamlined aerodynamic design can reduce wind drag & drastically reduces wind and road noise.
We offer a couple helmets that are perfect for long trips, see the list below.

The answer is generally NO. Normally, the real concern is from a major drop (for example from a balcony or second story window) or accident. If you drop it from your hand or it falls off you bike seat or handle there should be no issue. If you do drop it, you should still inspect it carefully. If there are no dents or cracks in the shell and none of the inside components are loose, then you shouldn't need to replace it. However, it should be noted that frequent drops, even from your hand, can reduce the effectiveness of the helmet, and it could fail in an accident. Please take good care of you helmet and store it properly when not in use.
1. Replace your helmet after five years of normal use.
If you ride a motorcycle, you may have heard that a helmet needs to be replaced every 5 years, even if it looks still good and you really love it. Is it really necessary to replace the helmet every 5 years?
The answer is YES, because the foam will harden over time, and it will not compress in case of an accident. The shell will also become brittle after being exposed to continual sunlight for a long time. Normally when an accident happens, a new helmet with a hard shell will spread the impact to the larger area of the foam, dispersing even severe force. That is how a helmet works to prevent you from traumatic, even fatal, injury. However, an old helmet, with old foam and an old shell, is more likely to break or crack and transmits the force of the impact directly to your skull.
2. Replace your helmet ASAP if you crash.
If you crash while wearing a helmet, REPLACE IT. Even if the helmet remains visibly intact after a crash, the foam underneath the shell may have crumpled to absorb the force of the impact. It is no longer sound and can fail to protect you if you get in another accident. We also recommend you cut its straps off, so that no one can take it out of the trash and try to reuse it.
3. Replace your helmet if you notice any physical damages to the liner/strap/helmet even if it has not been 5 years.
Chin straps can also wear out because of sweat, salt, and dirt. If you can't tighten the strap, the helmet will not serve its function and should be replaced. If the liner is disintegrating, then it is time to consider a new helmet as well. If while cleaning and inspecting your helmet you notice it is worn out or starting to fall apart, it should be replaced, even if has not been 5 years.
Keep in mind the motorcycle helmet is the most important piece of safety gear that you have. Replace it when required, it is not worth the risk.
How do you know how tight your new motorcycle helmet should be? How tight is too tight? How loose is too loose? Here are a few tips that can help:
How tight is too tight?
No Pressure Points
A well-fitting helmet should be comfortably snug around the entire wearer's head without resulting in pressure points. Any pressure points or discomfort on the sides means that the helmet is too small, or not the right shape. Pressure points on the back of your head, at the base of your helmet, could mean that the helmet is not long enough. For a full-face helmet, if you feel the helmet squeezing your temples/cheeks too much and it causes discomfort, it means the helmet is too small.
No Red Forehead
If you fasten the chin strap and wear your helmet for a half hour and notice red spots when you take it off, it is too tight for you.
No Headache
If you get headaches or it is hard to breath during/after wearing the helmet, you should choose another size or consider another style of helmet, such as an open face helmet.
How loose is too loose?
(1) While riding, the helmet shouldn't have any up, down, or side to side movement. If you rock your head from side to side, or up and down, and the helmet moves, it means it is too loose for you.
(2) Fasten the chin strap and look straight ahead, then try to take off the helmet. If it comes off, this helmet is too large for you.
(3) If there is a gap between your cheek and the cheek pad, and your fingers can fit through, then the helmet is too loose for you.
Yes, all our AHR helmets are DOT certified. As shown in the listing photos, each helmet has a small DOT sticker on the back. Some new riders may have heard of the DOT certification, but they may not understand why it is important, so we have provided an explanation below.
What is DOT?
DOT stands for the Department of Transportation. This organization set Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 218 for motorcycle helmets. All helmets sold for use by motorcyclists in the United States are required to meet this standard. Helmets that meet the requirements of FMVSS 218 are considered 'DOT certified' and are given a DOT sticker. However, the Department of Transportation doesn't test the helmets directly. Instead, the DOT holds the helmet manufacturers responsible for testing their own helmets and adjusting to meet the standards. What to do to meet FMVSS 218? A helmet needs to pass 3 tests to meet FMVSS 218. First is the impact attenuation test. It includes dropping the helmet on different impact anvil (flat anvil and cylindrical penetrator anvil) from a pre-set height. It simulates a crash scenario, and the impact is measured using scientific tools under two separate crash tests. Second is the penetration test. The helmet is fixed to a base, then a sharp striker is dropped on the outer surface of the helmet. The test striker must not penetrate the helmet, otherwise it will not pass the test. Third is the retention strap test. For this test, the helmet retention straps are placed under a load in tension. The test starts with a load of 50lbs for 30 seconds. The load is then increased to 300lbs for 120 seconds. The strap test ensures it can hold the helmet in place in case of an accidentWhat does a DOT sticker look like? The DOT sticker contains the following wording and information: manufacturer and/or brand, DOT, FMVSS No. 218, CERTIFIEDAlthough the DOT certification is often considered as the most basic standard, it does certify that the helmet meets important safety standards. We recommend being sure that any helmets you purchase have this certification.
A tailor's tape is the best tool for measuring your head for a helmet. Wrap the tape around the thickest part of your head. For most people, this will be right above your ears, approximately half an inch above your eyebrows. Measure your head circumference. Please refer head circumference table below to choosing a right size helmet.
A motorcycle helmet is essential for your safety when riding the open road. However, when you need to stop, leaving your helmet with your motorcycle can mean getting it stolen. You can hold take it with you, but it is bulky and uncomfortable to carry with you. So, what can you do to keep your helmet from being stolen? Here are several options:
1. Consider installing a Motorcycle Tour Tail Box on your motorcycle. This box accommodates our AHR Half Face helmet, and 3/4 Open Face helmet and is lockable with 2 keys to keep your helmet safe.
2. Buy a suitable helmet lock and lock the helmet to your motorcycle. This is a widely used option. Helmet locks are available in different shapes and styles. To use with our Full face AHR helmet, you can buy a coiled cable lock and run it through the face opening, to the bottom of the helmet and lock it to the frame of your motorcycle, for example, the handlebars. After locking the helmet to your motorcycle, do not forget to cover the helmet with a waterproof fabric to protect it from rain and dirt.
3. Keep it in a backpack. Keeping your helmet in a backpack is an option you should consider because it is easy to carry and frees your hands. Our 24L Helmet Backpack is suitable for all our AHR helmets.
4. Keep it in the carry bag that came with your helmet. All our AHR helmets come with a carry bag and this bag can be stored easily when not in use.
To keep your helmet from getting stolen, you can choose any of the methods described above.
Have you ever been riding with your friends and had to yell to tell them something? Have you ever stopped your motorcycle halfway through your trip to answer a call? These are common issues for riders, but with a motorcycle intercom system, they can be a thing of the past. Here are a few benefits of using a motorcycle intercom system:
Help you safely and effectively communicate with your friend
A motorcycle intercom allows you to talk to your friends while you are riding, which can be helpful if you need to give them directions, warn them of something, or if you simply want to chat. It also allows you to hear your friends better, which can be useful if they have any concerns or questions. Set up is simple, all you need to do is fit each helmet with a Bluetooth intercom system and pair them BEFORE starting your ride. Our AHR intercom headset can pair up to 3 riders & allows 2 riders to use the intercom at the same time. The highest ideal speed is between 60-80 mph & the longest functioning distance is up to 1093 yards (1000 m).
Allow you to answer phone calls while riding
With a motorcycle intercom, you can have a hands-free conversation without having to worry about losing focus on the road. You will not miss any important phone calls, and you can keep riding the whole time.
Add some music to your riding
It can be boring if you take long road trip by yourself. With a motorcycle intercom, you can safely listen to your favorite music or podcast while riding!
Currently there are 2 types of helmet chin straps on the market. One is the D-ring strap, and the other is the Quick release buckle strap. There is no data to indicate which is better/safer, so you can determine which is better for you.
What is Quick release buckle strap?
The quick release buckle strap consists of two parts, it has a red buckle with a tab on one side and a black plastic ratchet strap on another side. You just need to insert the plastic ratchet into the buckle, and it will auto-lock. Then when you want to loosen the strap, just pull the red tab.
Pros:
(1) The quick release buckle is a easier to use and can be used with one hand. Quick release buckles are more common and convenient for casual motorcycle riding.
Cons:
(1) It is not easy to use with a helmet lock since there is no ring. Instead, you can use a coiled cable lock and run it through the face opening of the helmet.
What is D-ring strap?
D-ring strap consists of two metal D-rings on one side of the strap and a simple strap on the other side. When you are securing your chin strap, you need to pass the strap through both D-rings, then around and through the center of the first D-ring and pull it tight to secure. The pros and cons of D ring strap are below:
Pros:
(1) It works better with a helmet lock.
(2) A D-ring helmet chin strap is considered the industry standard for helmets used in motorcycle racing.
Cons:
(1) A D-ring strap can be difficult to use, especially when you are wearing a gloves or if it is your first time using the strap.
(2) You need to secure/loosen it with two hands.
