Lace Front Wig Measurement TutorialHow Do I Take Measurements for a Lace Front Wig?Taking head size measurements for a lace wig consists of six simple steps that can be accomplished at home by following the guide below or by visiting a local hairdresser that has experience with applying lace wigs. The most important Step is #1, which is "The Circumference of the Head". This step determines the initial head size for all of our wig caps and can be used to order 99% of the wigs available in our store. We suggest you follow one of the two methods below before taking wig measurements to ensure the most exact size is calculated. 1. Preparing Your Hair For MeasurementsMethod 1 - Hair Preparation with Existing Hair: If you have existing hair, we recommend styling your current hair like it will be under the wig when the wig is worn. In order to achieve accurate measuring results, either braid your hair straight back into flat cornrows along the scalp, braid hair in a flat beehive, or wrap it back in a flat tight ponytail. Make sure to get the hair as flat and tight as possible before taking the measurements. This will eliminate bulges that distort head contours. Method 2 - Hair Preparation with little to NO Hair: If you have hair that is less than 3" Inches in length or no hair at all, you can either take measurements when the hair is wet and flat along the scalp, apply a wig cap to flatten the hair, or simply take measurements directly to the scalp. Make sure to press firmly against the scalp and measure only where your hairline appears or wherever you desire the lace hairline to be constructed. 2. Determining Standard Size MeasurementsTo determine your standard size measurements all you need is to complete is Step #1, "The Circumference of the Head". You can then compare them to the average sizes below. Not everyone will meet these measurements - some may be under or over and that is perfectly normal. If you choose a any wig cap other than FULL LACE CAP WITH NO STRETCH the wig will fit you perfectly.
3. Taking Custom Wig MeasurementsUse a soft measure tape to measure steps 1-6 below, you can use the typical tape measure used for clothing. We take measurements in whole and half inches, so please round your measurements up not down. Example: 12 3/4 should be rounded up to 13 and 12 1/4 should be rounded up to 12 1/2.
