Save money

If you are buying a wig for the first time and and buying a wig size by feel, there is a good chance that you will buy a wig size that does not fit and either repurchase it or return the purchased wig but pay the postage. So know the size of the wig you're buying in advance.

How do I measure my head circumference?

Forehead to nape

You need to place the tape from the center front of your hairline to the nape of your neck. If you have no or very little hair, you need to place your index, ring, and ring fingers flat on your forehead just above the brow bone. Now, you must measure the length or inches between the tapes.

 

Circumference of a circle

You will need to place the tape at the front center of your hairline, then around your ears around the back of your neck, and then place the tape again at the front center of your hairline. This type of measurement is like a circle.

 

Ear to ear

You need to place the tape on your head from ear to ear. It would be best not to place the tape on your ear or touch it. Instead, placing the tape on the top of your ear would be best.

 

Temple to temple

Place the tape measure at your temple, then move it around the back of your head to touch the other temple.

It's also important to consider your body type and natural hair volume when choosing a wig size.

If you are petite, have full, moderately long hair, then you are most likely a "petite" type. If your hair is long and thick, please add a size.

If you have a medium body frame and a full head of hair with moderate length, you're probably "average." If your hair is long and thick, please add a size. If you have thinning or no hair, choose a smaller size.

If you have a larger body frame, with a head circumference of more than 22½", and you have a full head of hair with moderate length, you are probably 'Large'. If you have sparse, thin, or no hair, go down a size.

 

Advice

Before you measure the head circumference of the wig, it's a good idea to remove any hairstyles that might interfere with the measurement. When measuring head circumference, some hairstyles, such as braids, buns, ponytails, etc., can add volume and affect the measurement result.

If possible, it is best to remove some accessories that will affect the measurement results, such as pins, clips, bobby pins, etc.

To get accurate measurements, it is best to use an elastic, non-stretchable band that allows you to measure your head.

Each full cap wig has an adjustment feature inside the wig cap (Velcro or soft snap size tab) that expands or contracts by 1 inch on the perimeter to ensure maximum comfort.
