    Default Face shield for a small head...

    Obviously not for me, but for my daughter who has shown some interest in turning. Luckily she takes after her mother and doesn't have a boof head like her dad.

    I've seen apprentice/junior face shields before but now that I want one... Nada.

    My bolle shield doesn't shrink down enough and neither do the generic ones in bunnies.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Glue some foam around the inside of the headband?

    That's a thought. Could get a bit hot and sweaty though. Worth a try still.

    Thanks

    Rather than forming a complete ring of foam do it in 25mm segments and skip every second segment.

    Stick a face shield to a bicycle helmet and have extra protection
