I'm going to go with the idea that helmets are no inhibitor to syker
powers, simply because at one point in Brainburners it mentions sykers
wearing helmets to confuse enemy forces who was and was not a syker.  Given
how deadly the battlefields of the Last War have been described I doubt
Sykers would wear helmets as disguises if they had to take them off to use
their powers to full effect, as such a delay in fighting (or reduction in
power if the helmets did inhibit syker powers) could easily result in the
death of the sykers.
