Default skull caps?

What does everyone prefer to wear? What works best when not wearing a helmet?

I started wearing skull caps to keep the sun off of my head when I had no hair...
But now I'm in this bet with the wife I wear them to keep my hair tame since it has been 9 months since I have cut it. I can't wait for this bet to be over!

I have a cloth dale jr. rag I got on a whim to have something now it just sits in the bags... Now I wear either fitted ball cap or my pirates pleather skull cap and when I have to wear a helmet(certain states) Its a novelty the hell with the D.O.T. helmets If I'm on long highway its headphones under the modular helmet... But I'm bald so if its night its nothing or a rolled up bandana...

juz goggles ... I have a nice thick head of hair, so no sunburn ... nothing like the wind in the hair. Why do you guys w/ hair wear those things anyway?

I'm naturally bald (not one of these shaved-head posers) so I need some protection from the FL sun. When I'm not wearing my helmet I spray truck bedliner on my head. Great coverage, flexes with me, don't worry about it flying off like do-rags and ball caps can when they aren't tight, and peels off when the ride is over. On road trips, it lasts at least 8 days - probably more, but I haven't tested that yet.

One word of caution - don't spray it in your ears. B*tch to get out.

I would like to know how you guys wear a baseball cap without it blowing off. I could see if it's on backword but I see some guys wearing it with the bill towards the front and there going down the highway. I've tried it and I can't keep one on.
