Shoei Helmets and Channel Hair

I'm on my second Shoei helmet (Multitec and Neotec) and have worn these over the course of 4+ years. My one critique of these helmets is that after wearing them over 30 minutes I always have a channel on the top of my head where my hair has parted due to the helmet liner. Does not matter if I have long or short hair (mostly very short) and always makes me look damn silly when I take the helmet off. I always put a hat on at stops. So I'm probably being a bit vain but it's also a pita when I ride to the office.

So, any suggestions. Am I the only one who has this issue. I've tried various helmet liners but just make my hair look like Gary Busey's. None of the folks I ride with have Shoei's so I do not have a reference point.

Harley Pirate style do-rag?

Dude, channel hair is probably the least of your worries.

I wear a Neotec, know what you mean. Try a helmet liner

Shave. Or wear a helmet liner/skull cap. Or both.

Oh great... I just bought the N:huheotech!

Drop some vanity!

Use Sugru to fill the channel: http://sugru.com/

Probably will beat JB Weld

Rock the helmet hair!! Let your freak flag fly!

I have the same problem. I usually have some bottled water with me to drink during my stops, so when I take my helmet off I dowse my head with water. It doesn't eliminate the channel hair problem, but it helps. And it's refreshing.

Wear a baseball cap when you stop

Yea, I get that Adidas 3 stripe on my hair too ! I fitted one of these and solved the problem, better air flow too.

Yea a do-rag will make for an interesting look with my Klim jacket and Aerostich pants.

So the consensus is

1. Suck it up and embrace the hair (while I still have some)
2. Wear the baseball cap off the bike (which I already do)
3. I'll never look like the guy beachmoto posted but then who the hell does

Now who is going to give us a pic?

I didn't see consensus. But your problems will go away if you just shave. Even a buzz would make it go away.

Yes - you have to embrace the irony! Like when we pull into the HD dealership in Cartersville on a Gold Wing and K1600 so we can use their bathrooms..... They LOVE that!

Subconsciously you want a Harley.

Try keeping a comb in your purse along with the tampons and lipstick.
