eBay with Under Armour has the Under Armour Men's HeatGear Tactical Hood (Blue, Black, Green, or Brown) for $20 with free shipping. Features lightweight, fast-drying fabric. Ideal for use in extermely warm weather.
^ The thing about this product is that only keeps your head cooler than other full coverage tactical hoods, if you are in an environment where you want to decrease sunburn or sand/etc dust exposure.
It also helps decrease wind burn in winter and keeps you warmer than nothing. Look at it as a dual purpose product, you can get warmer balaclavas for winter but then it would be less suitable for other times of year.
If you want to be really warm, wear this AND a looser fitting balaclava over it... what ends up happening to me is I often overdress when doing things like shoveling snow then partway through I want to strip a layer off at which point something like this that wicks sweat away would be welcome.
