Wig buying guide
Find the wig that fits you.
Three steps: measure your head, choose your lace type, then decide length and density. If you get stuck, write to us — we help every day.
1. How to measure your head
You need a soft tape measure and 2 minutes. Flatten your hair as much as possible (or wear a wig cap) and measure without pulling tight.
Circumference
Start at your front hairline, go above the ears, around the nape and back to the start. This is your key number.
Front to nape
From the front hairline, over the crown, down to the nape.
Ear to ear
From the top of one ear, over the head, to the other ear.
Cap size chart
| Size | Circumference | Choose it if |
|---|---|---|
| S | 52–54 cm | Smaller head or petite size |
| M | 54–56 cm | The most common — fits ~80% of women |
| L | 56–58 cm | Lots of your own hair or braids underneath |
Between two sizes? Go for the larger — every cap has an adjustable band and combs.
2. Lace types, simply
Lace is the fine, sheer mesh the hair is hand-tied into. Wherever there is lace, the hairline looks like it grows from your scalp.
Full Lace
Lace over the whole cap — part anywhere, high ponytails.
- Part anywhere
- High ponytail
- Most natural
Lace Front
Lace at the front — natural hairline, friendlier price.
- Natural forehead
- Lightweight
- Friendlier price
360 Lace
Lace all around the perimeter — natural edges even in an updo.
- Natural edges all around
- Buns & ponytails
- Balanced price
Closure
A lace patch at the part — the easiest to wear for beginners.
- Easiest to wear
- Great for beginners
- Low maintenance
3. Which length?
Length is measured with the hair stretched from the crown down. Wavy and curly textures look 2–4 inches shorter than their stretched length.
10–12″
Chin — bob
14–16″
Shoulders
18–20″
Below the shoulders
22–24″
Mid-back
26–30″
Waist
4. Density
Density tells you how much hair the wig has. The higher, the fuller and more glam.
150%
Natural and airy — like most natural hair.
180%
Full with movement — the most popular choice.
200–250%
Rich volume for a glamorous look.
