I have a motorbike and wear my helmet about two hours every day, longer if I take a trip on it. It has never been painful.
It's snug and it can feel a bit weird the first few times (specially around the ears), but if you use a helmet and it hurts, I'd definitely get another helmet (hint: different brands have slightly different shells, so maybe try a few different makes).
I also have a GearVR and it took ages fiddling with the straps to get a comfortable fit. I can't use it for long, but it has nothing to do with pain: The phone I use gets very hot and it's so close to the eyes that gets uncomfortable. Also, the lenses fog up.

If you get fogging at the beginning of the session, that dissipates later, try putting the headset without the phone on top of your head for a few minutes before you start using it. You can spend this time downloading updates or new things to try or just goofing off. It will allow the lenses to come closer to your body temperature so moisture from your breath doesn't condense on them anymore.
