Question 1

What glasses look good on a big head?

Accepted Answer

Thick, oversized frames are good for big head. As for the glasses shapes, rectangular and square frames are excellent choices as they add structure and definition. Aviator and geometric shapes can also provide a stylish look that suits a large head.

Question 2

What frame width is ideal for large head sizes?

Accepted Answer

The ideal size is generally wider than your face, or 145mm to 165mm when measured from temple to temple. Check the frame’s measurement details and compare them with a pair you already own to find the right fit.

Question 3

Can regular frames be stretched to fit a bigger head?

Accepted Answer

Better not, as resilient as your glasses frames can be, even if you've made it to fit to your head, you may still find it too tight and cause pressure to your nose and temple, even leave marks on your face.

Question 4

What frames materials are better for big head?

Accepted Answer

Titanium and acetate are excellent choice. They are all lightweight, flexible and without adding too much pressure to your face.

Question 5

How do I measure my head size for glasses?
