Question A thin hood? Where can I find one?

My mom HATES the thick 7mm hoods, and does not get cold like I do out here in California. But she does want some sort of hood. She mentioned she saw someone diving with a very thin flexible hood. Do any of you know where I can find one? Someone else mentioned that it may be a surfer's hood??? I have no idea. Help? Thanks!!

Scubatoys sells 3mill, 1 mill, and lycra hoods. Or, maybe she should try a beanie?

The beanie is greeat for flexibility if she doesn't need the full hood for warmth. If se does need the warmth of a full hood, several people on the site here suggested the hyperstretch hoods to me. They may work well for her too.

Thanks for the help! She does want a full hood, but just not a 7mm. I'm thinking that maybe the 3mm would be perfect!

This question might be one for Larry or Joe, but what size is good for a female? About 5'3" and 130lbs.?? Thanks
