Check for Obvious Problems
If you’ve tried all of the other ideas here, and you still keep hitting your head, there may be a bigger problem at hand. If you’ve ruled out a medical problem, then it may be worth bringing in a professional to assess the situation. They can help you figure out what’s causing the problem and whether there’s a quick and easy solution.

Measure Yourself
Another potential cause of constantly bumping your head is that you’re not being mindful of your surroundings. One easy way to combat this is by measuring yourself once a month. This way, you’ll have an average height for the month, and you can use that as a guide to find the most comfortable path through any space. Whether you’re in your own home or visiting a friend’s house, you can feel your way around and avoid the potential hazards that could cause you to hit your head. If you’re visiting someone else’s home, you may also want to ask if there are any hazards you should be aware of. The best way to be respectful of your hosts is to avoid injury, and measuring yourself will allow you to do just that.
Install A Track Light Or Track Lighting Kit
If you’re constantly hitting your head on a low beam in your home, there is an easy and inexpensive solution. If you have a track light or lighting kit, you can purchase a low-profile extension kit for it. This will drop the lighting fixture down about 18 inches, and you can use it to avoid hitting your head on a low beam. Using a track light can be a great way to add extra light to a room, and it can be especially useful if you want to highlight a particular piece of artwork or a special piece of furniture. If you have a low ceiling, you can use a track light to provide general lighting while also aiming it at the higher parts of the ceiling to prevent you from accidentally hitting your head.
Add Lights To The Ceiling
Another alternative to lowering the track light is to add a couple of lights to your ceiling. This will give you more general lighting in the room, and it will also help prevent you from hitting your head. This is especially helpful if you have a low-pitched ceiling, as it will allow you to see the higher portions of the ceiling and avoid low-lying beams. You can install lighting on your ceiling using various fixtures; just make sure that you install them high enough so that you’re not bumping your head against them. You can even purchase recessed lighting, which will allow you to install the lights flush with the ceiling. This type of lighting is great for kitchens or other rooms where you may be working above your head often.
Use Tactile Markers
If you find that you’re still bumping your head, even after lowering your track light or installing ceiling lights, there is one final option. You can use tactile markers to help you better navigate your space. While these markers can be used on virtually any surface, they’re most commonly used on walls. They come in different colors, so you can use them to mark shelves or special pieces of furniture so that you don’t accidentally hit them with your head. These markers can be useful for other items as well, such as doorknobs and light switches. If there are certain items in your home that you’re consistently bumping your head against, you can mark them with a tactile marker so that you’ll be able to avoid them.
Put Bump Stops Along the Ceiling’s Edge
Another way to prevent yourself from hitting your head is to install bump stops along the edge of your ceiling. These are usually made of rubber, and they will prevent the edge of your ceiling from hitting you in the head when you walk underneath it. While this is an effective solution, it can be a bit of an inconvenience if you’re hosting an event. You may want to save this solution for special occasions, or you may want to install temporary bump stops for your guests. Temporary bump stops can be made out of anything soft, such as foam or fabric, and can be stapled or tacked to the edge of your ceiling. This way, you can enjoy all of the benefits of bump stops without having to worry about removing them after the event is over.
