GETTING THE FIT RIGHT
⚭ 13 inches fit kids heads.
⚭ 14 and 15 inches tend to fit average-sized adult women's heads, and 16 and 17 inches fit larger heads.
⚭ One way to measure for yourself is to use a headband you already like the fit of as a reference. You can use a tape measure to figure out the length of that headband following the example in the measurement photo in this listing. Be sure to measure the underside of the headband – it's surprising but true: the underside and the upper side are different lengths!
⚭ If you don’t already have a headband you want to reference, another way to do it is to kind of find with your fingers where you’d like the ends of the headband to sit on your head, near each ear. Use a little pressure from your fingertips to figure out where it would feel best to have the pressure of the headband resting. Next, run a tape measure over the top of your head from end-point to end-point.
⚭ If you have trouble getting your headband to fit just right when it arrives, I now offer one complimentary fifteen minute Zoom consultation to help you out with that, and I include details for how to schedule it in your purchase confirmation email.

Did you even know made-to-measure metal headbands were a thing? They are a THING. The suppleness of this hand-forged metal, combined with the correct sizing for your head, makes all the difference in comfort and wearability.
You can gently widen or narrow the space between the two bands, effectively giving you control over the width of this piece, and you can use your fingers to shape your headband to the exact curves of your unique head.
Plus, I designed this hammered brass headband to be elegant, understated, versatile, and timeless.
LIKE YOU, probably.
I wanted you to be able to wear it every day, including your most special ones.
I make these to order, so while yours will be very much like the one pictured, it will also have its own unique personality.
