The measurement listed on the wig is an approximation of where the hair on the unit will fall after it is installed. For example, if it is 12 inches, the hair will land about 12 inches from the crown of your head. Wigs are measured from the root of the hair around the crown to the ends. Curly and wavy styles are measured the same way, but when taking the measurement, the hair is pulled straight to get an accurate measurement.
- First put the wig you purchased on the mannequin head, the steps are the same as you put the wig on your own head. If you just lay it flat on a table or elsewhere, it may result in inaccurate measurements.
- Place the 0″ end of a soft tape measure on top of the mannequin’s head. In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results, please place the tape measure on the top of your head and start tilting down when measuring.
- As you hold one end of the measuring tape at the crown, guide the measuring tape straight down the back of the wig until you’ve reached the end of the hair. If the hair is not completely straight, stretch the hair out with your hand as you measure.
