Proper Wig Fit
First, before anything else, you need to learn your short lace front wigs size. If don’t know your wig size, it’s easy to find out. You will only need a soft measuring tape. With the measuring tape, find the circumference of your head. You'll want to start with the nape of your neck and end at your hairline. If you’d prefer a visual demonstration of this, watch the video below:
Once you have a measurement, you can determine your bob wig size. Wigs come in three sizes: petite, average, and large. If your head measured between 20 and 21.5 inches, you need a petite size. For measurements between 21.5 and 22.5 inches, go for an average size. A large wig would fit a head circumference of 22.5 to 23 inches.

How To Put On A Wig
After receiving your blonde wig, you can now check the fit of the piece in person. Really, the size is a jumping-off point. A large in one brand may be too big, while another brand’s large is just right. You aren’t bound to a specific size. It’s all about what you’re comfortable in.
Put on your natural looking wigs and take a good look in the mirror. Move your head around a little. Natural movements, like a nod or a head shake, are good things to try. Take note of how the wig feels on your head.
Here are some signs your wig is too small. If the wig slides back on your head and reveals your scalp or hairline, it’s too small. If the wig has a lace frontal wig, check it out. If it’s rolling under instead of lying flat, you need a bigger wig. Likewise, if your wig(bought from wig shops) has a monofilament top, it should lay flat too. If the monofilament cap sticks up like a point on the top of your head, that’s a symptom of a wig that’s too small. Lastly, if it’s too tight, it’s obviously too small. If it squeezes your temples or pulls your biological hair, it’s too tight.
A wig can be too big, of course. What signs point to a too large wig? If you move your head and the Luvmehair wig slides along with it, you need a smaller wig. If the ear tabs gap up and you can see your biological hair under them, your wig is too big. Check the hairline or the lace front. Is there any wrinkling or buckling at the front of the wig? If yes, get a smaller wig.
Adjusting Wig Straps
If you catch any of these problems, try adjusting the wig using the straps in your best wig outlet cap. This will usually solve any minor fit problems. For example, if your wig is only a tiny bit loose, a tightening of the straps can help.
If the fit issue is not fixed by adjusting the straps, another wig size is in order. For best results, move up or down in wig size. Watch the video below for visual assistance on recognizing whether your lace front curly wig is too small, too big, or just right!
