If you're looking for a helmet recommendation, I'd recommend the Petzl Ecrin-Roc as a tried and true formula. Very comfortable, with little adjusting wheels on the side, and I think these days they cost about $115 or so, so that is still affordable (comparable with a cheap bike helmet). And they look kinda cool I reckon.
Look at pictures of trad climbers and mountaineers in books and magazines and you'll see that a lot of them use the Ecrin-Roc. The only remaining question is: do you get a red one or a white one?
