You need to determine your head shape before you shop for a helmet, especially if your head is oval. If it's long-oval, you'll find you have far fewer options. DAMHIKT. Very few helmet makers build a true long-oval helmet.
Arai's Signet-X is their only long-oval helmet line. Pricey, but it fits. I hear that some of the LS2 helmets are long-oval, but can't confirm.

I bought an HJC open face that I could never get rid of the pain in the forehead area. I took a chance on a Arai on sale and haven't regretted it so far.

Baloo is my name. Spyders are my game. Well, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, yes, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, I mean a doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee-dee-doo. And, well, now. Ha ha! What have we here?

I agree with the comment by Fat Baxter that the problem may be that you have a long oval shaped head. I am the same. Every helmet I tried gave uncomfortable pressure on the forehead. I have now had 2 Arai Signet-X lids. They are the only model I find comfortable. Yes it is pricey but it is comfortable from the start, from a top company and Snell rated so that makes it a bit easier to take the cost.
I'd also second the opinion about contacting Revzilla. I have bought all my gear from them. I am fortunate to live near Philly so can actually go to their retail store, get suggestions from their staff and try things on, but I have also bought mail order from them. Top notch!
