Bandana / Headbands

Another vote for the halo, it keeps sweat out of my eyes and cools me down. 

Pricey, but worth it.

Halo doesn't cover the top of your head leaving you exposed to the sun, OP is taller than his hair like me

You do get Halo models that cover your head:

There's the guy who is at CTCT Expo every year that sells the ones similar to the Halo above but with the "tail" that covers you neck.  Also, elasticated so no need to tie it with a big knot under your helmet.  I have one and it works great, just cant remember the guy's name or details.

Don't know what these cost but they have pretty cool, Cool Patches!

Only "bad" thing about the Halo is the rubber strip imprint on your forehead after the ride.

I took a buff and cut off a piece from the one side so its basically a very small buff (5cm) and i use that just around my head like a halo/guttr folded double and that seems to work for sweat.

Then its just an overpriced buff

No, it's a VERY overpriced buff with a rubber strip.

Look on eBay or Aliexpress.com. These type of things are very cheap there, like 1 dollar each. Lots of colours and designs.

Hi, I am not blessed in the hair department and hence would like to know what my fellow bald riders out there wear under their helmets to prevent sunburn as well as sweat pouring into eyes/glasses etc.

 

 

 

Head bands work for sweat, but not sunburn.

 

The answer is one of these, I always wear one under my helmet and it works perfectly to keep my large forehead covered and also to keep sweat out of my eyes.

 

It also works well in the rain.

 

And if it was good enough for the Cannibal, it is good enough for all of us:

 

Refer rule#22 for how to do it with style.

Yes. It looks really odd. But it is a great item. Glasses stay clean on rides.

I like the riding caps (like the cool one above), however, on long rides the elastic gets a bit tight. The buffs work better for these, although there is no peak, which I like.

[Barend de Arend]

Cap with a short peak is great.  In the sun, you don't get burn, and in rain, the peak gutters the water past your glasses, so you have a better view.

 

Cheapest and least intrusive is probably a lycra (not latex) swim cap.
