Default Skunk Head - What to do?

Anyone else deal with this? I am folically challenged and just shave the rest off anyway. I've been off the bike for years, just getting back into it last october. i noticed i'm getting a tan stripe down the middle of my head from the vents in my helmet. I've been using 48 spf sun screen the last week or two, but i think the damage is already done. I dont really like to ride without a helmet. I suppose I could wear a hat underneath, but that doesnt sound very comfortable. Anyone seen a schelby cobra? thats what the top of my head looks like.

definitely a bandana - like pantani!
or a cycling cap, although that'll be a bit warmer

How about using suntan lotion to turn the stripes into a check pattern, other effects could be a smiling face or your national flag.

I was thinking a Nike swoosh. Maybe I could get some $ for advertising?

I went to the bike store last night and bought one of those goofy cycling caps. Fits ok under the helmet. It'l do.
