Measuring Your Head For A Wig
Welcome to Adoriya's guide on how to measure your head for the perfect wig fit! Whether you're customizing a cranial prosthesis or selecting a ready-to-ship option, accurate measurements are key to ensuring comfort and a natural look. This simple, step-by-step guide will help you take the correct measurements so your wig feels secure and looks flawless. Grab a soft measuring tape, and let’s get started on finding your perfect fit!
Wig Tip:
Make sure your hair is properly secured for an accurate measurement.
1. Head Circumference
-
Prepare the Measuring Tape: Use a soft, flexible measuring tape that easily conforms to the shape of your head.
-
Start at the Hairline: Place the measuring tape at the center of your forehead, right at your natural hairline (or where your hairline would be if you have hair loss).
-
Wrap Around the Head: Gently wrap the tape around your head, ensuring it passes:
-
Just above your ears.
-
Around the back of your head, sitting just above the nape of your neck.
-
-
Ensure a Secure Fit: The tape should sit snugly against your head, but not too tight. Make sure it stays even around your head without dipping too low or sitting too high.
-
Read the Measurement: Once the tape is wrapped around your head, meet the end of the tape at the starting point on your forehead. Record the measurement where the tape overlaps.
-
Double Check: Repeat the process to ensure accuracy, as this measurement will determine your wig size.
Now that you’ve measured your head circumference, you’re one step closer to finding the perfect fit for your custom wig!. The average circumference is 22.5 inches.
2. Forehead To Nape
-
Start at Your Hairline: Place one end of the soft measuring tape at the center of your forehead, right at your natural hairline.
-
Run the Tape Over Your Head: Gently pull the measuring tape over the top of your head, following the natural curve of your skull.
-
Stop at the Nape: Continue pulling the tape down until you reach the nape of your neck, where your hairline ends.
-
Record the Measurement: Make sure the tape lays flat against your head, then check the number where it meets the nape. This is your "forehead to nape" measurement.
Take your time to ensure accuracy for the best wig fit! The average measurement for this area is 14.5 inches.
3. Over Top Of Head
-
Position the Tape: Start by placing the end of a soft measuring tape at the hairline in the middle of your forehead, right where your natural hairline begins.
-
Guide the Tape: Pull the tape over the top of your head, ensuring it stays flat. Guide it to the back of your head, placing the other end at the nape of your neck, where your natural hairline ends.
-
Check for Fit: Make sure the tape is snug but not too tight, following the natural curve of your head.
-
Read the Measurement: Look at the number on the tape where it meets the nape. This is your "over the top" head measurement.
-
Double-Check: For accuracy, measure at least twice to ensure you’ve got the correct number.
This measurement helps ensure your wig cap is perfectly sized for comfort and a natural fit! The average measurement here is 12.5 inches.
4. Front Hairline
-
Position the Tape: Place one end of the tape at the center of your forehead, just above your eyebrows—this is where your natural hairline would begin.
-
Measure Across the Hairline: Gently stretch the tape across your forehead, following your natural hairline until you reach the opposite side, right where your hairline would end near the temple.
-
Note the Measurement: Take note of the number on the tape where it reaches the temple. This is the measurement of your front hairline.
-
Double-Check: To ensure accuracy, repeat the process and compare the measurements.
This front hairline measurement will help create a wig that fits your natural hairline perfectly for a seamless look.
5. Nape Of Neck
-
Position the Tape: Take your soft measuring tape and place one end at the lowest point of your hairline, right at the base of your neck.
-
Measure Across the Nape: Pull the tape across the nape, moving it horizontally from one side of your neck to the other, just above where your neck meets your shoulders. Ensure the tape stays straight and snug against your skin but not too tight.
-
Record the Measurement: Once you’ve reached the other side of your neck, note the measurement in inches or centimeters. This is your nape of neck measurement.
-
Double-Check: To ensure accuracy, repeat the process and compare the measurements.
This measurement ensures your wig fits securely and comfortably around the back of your neck for a natural, flawless look! The average measurement is 5.5 inches.
6. Temple-To-Temple
-
Position Yourself: Stand in front of a mirror to ensure accuracy and hold your soft measuring tape ready.
-
Start at One Temple: Place one end of the measuring tape at your temple, which is located just above your eyebrow, on the side of your head near your hairline.
-
Measure Across the Crown: Gently pull the tape across the top of your head, following the natural curve, and take it to the opposite temple.
-
Check the Tape's Placement: Ensure the measuring tape stays flat against your head and follows the curve, without dipping too low on the forehead or too far back.
-
Read the Measurement: Once the tape reaches the other temple, note the number. This is your temple-to-temple measurement.
-
Double-Check: To ensure accuracy, repeat the process and compare the measurements.
