How to measure your head for a wig

A comfortable fit starts with careful measurements. Use a soft measuring tape, or a strip of paper and a ruler. Keep the tape snug, not tight, and measure twice.

  1. Circumference: Start at your natural hairline at the forehead. Measure around your head above the ears, across the nape, and back to the starting point.
  2. Front to nape: Measure from the center of your front hairline over the top of your head to the nape of your neck.
  3. Ear to ear over crown: Measure from above one ear over the crown to above the other ear.
  4. Temple to temple around back: Measure from one temple around the back of your head to the other temple.

Choosing your cap size

Cap-size labels and measurements can vary by supplier and wig style. Check the size chart and fit details for the specific wig you want before choosing a size. If a size chart is not available or you fall between sizes, contact us to confirm fit before ordering.
