I bet you've probably thought of this already - but it's not just getting teased that might be an issue. What about trouble buying hats, or not being able to wear a fascinator or part her hair a certain way. They sound so trivial, but too an emotional teenager, they will be big things, that could have some huge impacts on her.
Meanwhile, she wouldn't even remember a helmet. I know you'd hate it, but would you rather hold that burden for her now than have her deal with it later?
That's the way I would look at it. But I hope the helmet is not even an option.
