I thought this might help people like myself who do not know their hat size and are looking at buying a mask.

1. Measure the circumference of your head usually about 3/4" above eyebrows, where you think you're going to be wearing your hat.

2. Measure snugly to 1/8" for an accurate number.

3. Divide by pi ( 3.1415 ) to find your hat size.

or the Coles notes

Hat Size The Math Your Head
6 ------> 18.7334 --> 18 6/8
6 1/8 --> 19.1261 --> 19 1/8
6 1/4 --> 19.5188 --> 19 1/2
6 3/8 --> 19.9115 --> 19 7/8
6 1/2 --> 20.3042 --> 20 2/8
6 5/8 --> 20.6962 --> 20 6/8
6 3/4 --> 21.0896 --> 21 1/8
6 7/8 --> 21.4823 --> 21 1/2
7 ------> 21.8750--> 21 7/8
7 1/8 --> 22.2677 --> 22 2/8
7 1/4 --> 22.6604 --> 22 5/8
7 3/8 --> 23.0531 --> 23
7 1/2 --> 23.4458 --> 23 1/2
7 5/8 --> 23.8385 --> 23 7/8
7 3/4 --> 24.2312 --> 24 2/8
7 7/8 --> 24.6239 --> 24 5/8
8 ------> 25.0166 --> 25

Very useful Hans - especially to the mask makers.

Thank goodness you sent this to me earlier and I've made good use of it.

Downloaded - plastified and put in my order file for safe keeping.

:D :D :D

STace.

Thanks Stace, I'm glad it helped out. It's just not very intuitive when it comes to the sizes, like knowing that you have to divide by 3.14568........
