In fact I was thinking separate hood but both are fine. Now it looks like I this kind of suits are a bit difficult to find.
 
joha, fit is everything. just try to rent a few different models/sizes or at least try them on in the store - it will be a little more expensive that way (than buying online), but less expensive than buying the wrong suit and then having to buy another one.
 
I have a Henderson 5mm Hyperstretch. It fits great and the water exchange is minimum and keeps me warm. It is a back zip but very easy to get on and off by myself. The only draw back is that the life cycle of the Hyperstretch may be 85% of non-Hyperstretch neoprene, but because of the better fit and ease of don and doff I'm willing to take that. I also use a separate hood.
