I clip my hair down to 1/4 inch. Problem solved. My wife solves the problem in the other direction: her hair is so long, wavy, and thick (naturally) that it can it can withstand the pressure of the helmet and bounces right back to shape. Wavy-haired people have all the luck: even if her helmet does press unusually hard, to anyone but her it just looks like her hair grew another wave.

@Lucre: try a motorcycle shop. They tend to keep more XL helmet sizes in stock. Or if you happen to live close to a ski shop, that's another good option: lots of snowboarder helmets have a removable pad that's just for warmth, not safety, so if you pull it out you have a bigger helmet.
