Is there a standard that the airlines are required to provide to passengers that give them so many inches of headroom to the seat in front of them during a crash?

I am male. I have asked counter girls and friends, but are there rules of thumb to follow? There are several styles of hat, and it is for a casual but important function which is essentially a job interview. I normally do not wear hats so am out of my league.
