How to choose the right size raffia hat?

Looking for the perfect raffia hat to complete your look? Whether it's for a chic evening, a day at the beach, or simply to protect yourself from the sun, choosing the right headwear is essential. But how can you be sure it will fit you perfectly? The answer is simple: measure your head circumference!

Why is it important to know your head size?

Finding the right raffia hat isn't always easy. If it's too big, it might fall over your eyes and get in your way. If it's too small, it'll be uncomfortable and could even cause a headache. That's why it's crucial to know your exact head circumference before you shop.

Each brand and model of raffia hat has its own unique sizes, which can vary considerably. A 57 cm hat from one brand may not be the same as a 57 cm hat from another. Knowing your head circumference will allow you to compare different styles and find the one that's perfect for you.

How to measure your head circumference?

Fortunately, taking your measurements is a very simple operation. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Choose the right tool

To measure your head circumference, you'll need a flexible and accurate tape measure. Avoid rigid tape measures that may not fit perfectly to the shape of your head.

2. Position the meter

Place the tape measure just above your eyebrows, across your temples and down to the back of your head where it is widest. Make sure the tape measure is horizontal and neither too tight nor too loose.

3. Read your measurement

Once the tape measure is securely in place, note the number indicated. This is your head circumference! Write it down carefully so you can refer to it when you buy hats in the future.

Some additional tips

• Measure yourself several times to ensure you have the correct measurement. Your head circumference may vary slightly depending on the time of day or how tired you are.
• If you're between sizes, choose the larger one. It's always easier to adjust a raffia hat that's too big than too small.
• Also, remember to measure your head circumference when wearing a voluminous hairstyle, such as braids or a bun. This will help you find a hat that will perfectly fit your look of the day.

With these few tips, you'll be ready to find the perfect headwear!
