Measuring Guide:

(A) Measure from the tip of the chin, to the furthest point at the crown. Keep mouth closed, and keep tape in front of ears. Hold the tape still with your finger, whilst another person takes the measurement. Tape should be reasonably tight, but not squeezing.	B) Measure around the forehead at the widest point, where you would wear a hat. Keep the tape above your ears and eyebrows.	C) Measure from the bottom of the chin, to the middle of the eyes. For accuracy, have someone help you.
