HOW TO OBTAIN YOUR HEAD MEASUREMENT?

Measuring tape can be found at your local fabric store or convenience store. It will need to be the soft one for accuracy. Small,Medium and Large:

WHAT CAP SIZES ARE THERE?
Small - 20,21 inch circumference
 
Medium - 22 inch circumference
 
Large - 23-24 inch circumference
 
Never choose a category and go with the number you “think” you may be. As you can see, small has 2 different sizes and large has 2! If you are a 21 but order a 23, your wig will not fit as it will for sure be too big.
WHAT IF I FALL BETWEEN CAP SIZES?
Should you fall between cap sizes, we advise measuring up a half size. For ex. If you’re 21 1/2 measure up to 22. All of our units come with adjustable elastic bands so even if you measure up by the 1/2, your wig will still fit.

HOW SHOULD MY NATURAL HAIR BE WHEN OBTAINING THIS MEASUREMENT?

When obtaining your head measurement, you want your natural hair to be either up in a ponytail (if your natural hair isn’t really thick) or for best accurate results a braided foundation. Why? Custom wigs are created on a bald canvas block. This means your wig is made to be worn over such foundation for the flattest appearance.
