How
do I know what size wig to choose?
Wigs should be worn on your
natural hairline in both the front and the back. The average wig
size will fit most customers. If your measurements don't match
exactly to the chart, choose the larger size. All wigs have
adjustable Velcro or hooks straps that can do small
adjustments.
Before you measure, make
sure to flatten your hair, use a cloth tape measure and do not pull the
tape measure, just rest it over or around your head. Pulling stretches the
tape and will give you the wrong size.
1. Measure around your head
at the hairline. The "around your head" size of every wig can be
adjusted up to 1" larger or smaller to ensure a secure fit. The tape
should be just above the ear and along your natural hairline
2. Measure your head from
the nape over the crown to the top of your forehead where your natural
hairline is.
3. Measure your head from
the top of one ear, across the top of the head (crown) and to the top of
the other ear.

It is a modified cap style with less bulk in the crown area.
