What you should be asking: "have you ever come away from a day of climbing, regretting that you wore a helmet?"

Certainly. They are hot and sweaty. It's the reason I almost always take mine off as soon as I feel like it's not necessary. They are also really annoying to fit into a pack. Sometime I really wish I had space for an extra sandwich in my bag.

I don't think anyone enjoys wearing a helmet. You wear it because at some point you decide that the hassle and discomfort is worth the extra protection. Or because you're partner won't climb with you without one.
