Well, years ago I used to laugh at the doo rag and bandana guys. Sissies trying to look tough. Now, as I've grown older and my hair is gone..... so I shave my head, I wear a doo rag. You burn that scalp one time really bad and you'll never want to do it again. Hats and caps don't stay on. And I don't like sunscreen.
My old lady wears one, because she is opposite of me. She has thick, long flowing hair.. And when you're going 70-80 mph it doesn't take long to become a mess.
On a related note, I used to laugh at guys wearing bandanas and face covers of any kind. Now in the last few years I've grown my beard longer and find myself wearing bandanas and face covers to keep my beard from covering my eyes. Also, again, I don't like sunscreen.
We could talk chaps next if you like.

Wearing flight helmets for many years, and especially in the winter, take off the helmet and your hair stands up ie helmet hair.
I find that it keeps my hair, which is considerably long, in place and aids in allowing the helmet to slip on easy.
Also, as stated above you can wash and dry it, keeps the inside of the helmet cleaner.
Actually functional.
