2. Using a soft tape measure, measure the length of the longest strand of hair. Make sure it is the length from the top of the head to the end.
Step 2: Different textures of wig length differences
Straight hair
The length of the hair is the length of the hair in its straightened state. So if you buy straight hair, just buy it according to the actual size you want. If you want to buy 18 inches of straight hair, buy 18 inches of straight hair, so that wearing straight hair, the hair is also from the top of the head to the end of the size of 18 inches.
Wavy
If you have wavy hair, from the wig lengths chart , we can know that it should be measured after straightening your hair. Therefore, the same length of the wig, compared to straight, if it is body wave, the appearance will look shorter than in the straight hair state.
You need to subtract 1-2 inches from the length of straight hair, which is the length of hair for body wave appearance. So if you want to buy a body wave that looks 18 inches, it is best to choose a 20 inch body wave.
Curly
From the wig lengths chart , we can know if it is curly or afro curl, it is also measured after the hair is straightened. So, the same length of wig, if it is curly or afro curly, the appearance will look a little shorter than in the straight hair state. Because curly is tighter than body wave , so if it is curly, you need to subtract 3-4 inches. If it’s a kinky curly, then you need to subtract 5-6 inches.
According to this rule, wavy hair will be 1-2 inches shorter on your body than straight hair. Depending on how tight the curls are, the curls may be shorter. If it is deep curly, it may be 2-3 inches shorter. If it’s kinky curly or afro curly, it may be 3-4 inches shorter or more. So the tighter the curl, the shorter it will look for the same length wig.
Step 3 : Choose the best wig length according to your body featuresure
Now you know how to measure the length of the wig and how different texture affect the wig. Then you also need to consider your height, face shape and body type.

2.Face shape
Round face: A round face with soft lines, a slightly wider forehead and chin, and cheekbones a little wider than the forehead and chin.
Round faces are suitable for layered long bob with a slightly over chin, trendy layered bob, bangs or shoulder-length hair.
Curly or wavy hair, cushion-shaped hair with thick, angled bangs, or exaggerated long bangs are all good choices for round faces.
Avoid the classic Bob lengths that are saggy and dull.
Square face: A square face is characterized by a wide forehead, wide cheekbones, a wide chin and sharp angles.
For hairstyles, go for long shiny hair, layered from the chin position, a bob that is long in the front and short in the back, an irregular layered look with character, or sweeping eye bangs are good.
For styling, try curling your hair or simply combing it behind your head in a ponytail or a pillow to reveal your pretty chin.
