Hey bikerchick68 -
A helmet sometimes prevents head trauma and sometimes doesn't. In my case it didn't prevent trauma (probably pretty hard to do when I landed directly on my head...) but it did save my life. If you think it will help your friend, he can read about my story here.

I have everything I can do not to stop and encourage people to wear helmets when I see bare-headed people on bikes. Unfortunately since there is no way to predict how someone will react, I usually keep my opinion to myself when faced with helmet-less strangers.
