2. Measuring Method

Using a tape measure or a ruler, measure across your cheekbones, jawline, forehead, and the tip of your hairline up to the bottom of your chin.

If your face width and length are about the same and you have no angles to your chin, then you have a round face shape.

You can also easily determine if your face shape is round if your cheekbones are the broadest part of your face.

Choosing the best and most suitable wig is a very important decision. However, nobody wants to wear a wig that looks cheap, makes them feel uncomfortable, and does not suit them.

  1. Wigs are not created equal: high-quality hairpieces look significantly more realistic compared to cheaper models. However, if you want a wig that looks natural and suitable, then purchase from the well-known wig brands.
  2. Opt for a wig that features an adjustable size, which ensures a comfortable and snug fit. Looking for a wig that has Velcro tape, hooks, and clips on the inside.
  3. Make sure to choose a wig suitable for a chubby face that is made of comfortable materials.
  4. Look for a hairpiece that complements your skin tone. If you have a warm skin tone, go for a wig that has copper-colored reds, ebony brown-black shades, chestnut browns, or honey blondes. But if you have a cool skin tone, you can wear raven black, inky, auburn red, ash brown shades, or platinum blonde.
