Find the Most Appropriate Cap Size

If you’re new to wigs, you have probably come across what size wig cap you may need. Sterly is here to answer some of your burning questions about this feature and how you can measure your head and find the most appropriate wig cap. 

For your circumference measurement, use your tape measure and start at the center front of your hairline. Extend the tape measure down the head towards one ear, resting where the top of your ear connects to the head. Continue wrapping around your headlining the tape measure up with your nape, then your other ear, and then back to your front hairline. Mark your measurement and record the number.

You must first find your "top of head" point for your ear-to-ear measurement. Take your tape measure, stretch out 7 inches, then place one end on your front hairline and extend backward, stopping at 7 inches. This is your "top of head" point. 

Once you've found the top of the head point, slowly pivot the flexible tape measure down to meet the top of the ear, holding the end at the top of the head point. You may need to stretch the tape measure forward to meet your ear. With one end of the tape measure at your ear, extend around to the other ear making sure the tape is on your top of the head point. Mark your measurement and record the number. 

For your front-to-back measurement, place your tape measure at the center of your front hairline and extend backward, following the center of your head and ending at your nape. Mark your measurement and record the number. 

We recommend measuring all fields twice to ensure accuracy. Using your measurements, find your wig size by referencing the chart below. If your measurements indicate different sizes, always use the largest size to accommodate your head size.
