one that fits - try a few on for size and make sure they're comfy. I like Giro, specialized don't really fit me too well. If you like Giro, Hex is in your price range

agree on the fits bit. I have a Uvex XP100 - not a common helmet, but the first one I have had with a full cradle inside. Fits really nicely, can be adjusted with one hand while riding, and seems really well made.

+1 for one that fits.

Go to a bike shop, try some on. See what feels right. But it from that bike shop.

Much like shoes, helmets are something where a real shop is the only option.
