Follow the instructions
below to determine which size wig you will need. The vast majority of women
are Average size. If your measurements indicate that you are a Petite, please
see our selection of petite wigs. If you
need a Large size wig, please see our selection of
large size wigs.
You will need a cloth tape measure in order to do this properly. For best
results, ask someone to assist you.
Custom
Sizing:
At Lori's Wigsite we
are able to custom size any wig of your choice.
The cost is
only $20 extra ($40 for hand tied wigs), but the sale does become final once
altered.
At the time of
purchase, when checking out, (under the special instructions
section of the online order form), please type in the exact
measurements, so we may custom size the piece for you, thus
authorizing us to charge your card the $20 fee for custom
sizing.

Step One:
Circumference
Starting
at the front hairline, hold the beginning of the cloth tape in place. Wrap
tape around the head in the same position as the diagram; pull tape snug.
This measurement is the circumference of the head.

Step Two:
Front to Back
Starting
at the front of the hairline, hold the beginning of the tape in place. Place
the tape down the middle of the head to back nape area, about one inch below
the occipital bone (at the base of the skull). This is the front-to-back
measurement of the head.

|
|
Step Three:
Temple to Temple
Hold beginning
of tape at one side of the head, right at the temple area (usually level
with the slit of the eye but back at the temple area). Slide tape across
front hairline tightly until it reaches the opposite side of the head, exactly
at the same spot as where the other side began. This is the temple-to-temple
measurement.
