How should riders with small heads choose a helmet?

In-depth explanation

Seek brands that offer XS sizes or women-specific fits and try helmets with smaller shell sizes. Look for thinner cheek pads or replaceable liners to fine-tune the internal fit. If a helmet model feels too large around the crown, try other brands with narrower shell profiles.
