How to measure your head.

Take a measuring tape and measure the part of the head where the headband
will be worn. Start at the top of the head, bring the tape measure behind the ears, around the base of the head, and come back up to the top.

My headband size is 2cm (0.8") shorter than my head size.
In this page, headband size is 54cm(21.6"). (My head size is 56cm.)
Please change the size to fit your head.
