What is a good helmet that will fit snug, looks cool, and I can wear with the ear flaps on the side comfortably, but also be able to take the ear flaps off and wear the helmet with a beanie under it? I want a solid helmet that will fit to my head nice without jitteriness around and that meets the previous expectations. Anything helps, thanks. I'm 16, 145 lbs if that helps lol...

get a good fitting helmet. measure your head about an inch above your eyebrows and find your size on a size chart. go to your local shop and try some on in your size. you can order online in the same model and size you found in your shop if it's cheaper.

POC Receptor Bug. POC helmets are some of the most protective and the earflaps are really easy to take out and put back in. They're pricey but totally worth it in my opinion -> You only get one brain. But you definitely want to try it on first because it won't be comfortable or safe if it doesn't fit.

I'd say Poc receptor bug but I took the thin foam padding out of the inside and just wear a beanie under it because it's much more comfortable and with my beanie and balaclava on underneath it had a nice snug fit and looks awesome

Just try it first, if you think that helmet is comfortable for you to wear and that's it. You may now buy that one. :)
