How to measure circumference of your head?
Posted by Martin Havel on
The measurement should be taken with a device that cannot be stretched, such as a flexible metal tape measure. Wrap the tape snugly around the widest possible circumference - from the most prominent part of the forehead (often 1-2 fingers above the eyebrow) around to the widest part of the back of the head. Try to find the widest way around the head. Remeasure 3 times, and take the largest number.
