See some people and pictures in magazines that just seem to suit wearing a helmet but every time I catch sight of myself in one I just think what a twonk*
Does any think they actually look good in one?
Not an argument about wearing them
*I often think this without a helmet so this may be the answer to my question
i think i look like someone who wears a helmet for medical reasons rather than for recreational sports 😕

What he said. People do a double take to see where my carer is...
Hahahaha - no
I got a piss pot as normal xc ones make me look like a tool.

That sir, is genius.
But then I think that most people who see me riding think mtb'ers are cool, so it evens out. At least in my head.
I look a tw4t in mine. Took a while to get over thar. Spesh 2D that looks like a giant mushroom.
twonk here.
In a full face - yes
+1 for not cool. mine are always sideways on my head when someone takes a pic of me
i saw myself in a mirror today, helmetted and roadie capped, and yes, i looked like a mushroom head 🙁
I reckon to most people round here I look like a cyclist. I wouldn't wear one down the pub, but while riding a bike I doubt anyone bats an eyelid.
Do I look cool? No. But do I look stupid? No, too.
The only people who look cool in helmets would still look good wearing a Iggle Piggle costume.
In a full face with goggles, maybe 🙂
Mushroom Head here.
No-one looks cool in a helmet, the same as no-one looks cool on a bike. The sooner you realise that, the sooner we can all get riding and have some fun.
I don't think they suit me, but I what i do know is that I will never look quite as daft as that guy from MBUK who looks like a chavvy worzel gummage.
I had to laugh... When we were at CYB ChrisL caught sight of himself in a mirror wearing a helmet and got all annoyed about the fact he looked like a mushroom. NEWSFLASH! We all look like bloody mushrooms! You'd need a really weirdly shaped head not to.
I look like an actual bell end in my Giro Hex 😐
I look great wearing a helmet or not
he he. Nice troll but really..... All cyclists look like complete idiots no matter what they wear. MTBers look ridiculous in their gear, roadies look ridiculous in their gear, BMXers look ridiculous, etc, etc.
If we cared about what we looked like, we'd not ride bikes.
Yes. But only because it covers my face.

I look like a complete helmet. I'm on my 3rd one now and they all just perch on top of my oddly shaped bonce and make me look a tit. I think I should invent a cool looking helmet- there's obviously a market for one.
Not cool, but cooler than I would with tubes up me nose & a bandage round me head.
Only this one

I am reasonably satisfied that I look OK in mine actually. I'm not putting the matter to a vote, as my opinion on the question is the only one that really counts. 🙂
i look better than i would do if i didnt have one when i landed on my head sunday 🙂
i think full facers look great with googles. i think i look odd in xc ones and pisspot's but who really cares.
Surf-Mat
I look a tw4t in mine
Well, f*ck me, never thought I'd see the day!
BigDummy
He's back!
FTR, I look damn hot in my helmet
I've got a giro indicator and giro xen, the only difference is it can cost more to look a twunt than the cheaper one which also makes you look a twunt.
Costly twunt or cheap twunt, it's up to you.
