Depends which version you're playing.

If you're playing the original games, or earlier EE patches, all headwear protects against criticals - actually having literally any item in the "head" slot protected you from criticals, so if you somehow cheated a dagger into your Head slot it'd protect you from criticals just as well as a helmet would if I remember right.

Later EE versions changed the "anything in Head slot provides crit immunity" rule so that certain items like Ioun Stones and the Mask of King Strohm III would no longer protect against criticals.The wiki doesn't seem to have decided what to do to represent this change, almost every headwear item still mentions crit protection.
