How to Choose Glasses for People with Large Heads？
Choosing glasses for larger heads isn’t just about style—it’s about comfort, stability, and overall fit. People with wider faces often struggle with:
-
Temples digging into the sides of the head
-
Pain behind the ears
-
Glasses constantly slipping
-
Frames looking too small
The main culprit? Wrong sizing.
This guide will help you:
✔ Measure your face accurately
✔ Determine if a frame fits large heads
✔ Pick the best frame shapes
✔ Check MAXJULI recommended models
1.Measuring Your Face (A Must for Large Heads)
Here are the three key measurements you need:
Temple-to-Temple Width — Determines Frame Width
-
Stand in front of a mirror
-
Locate the widest point of your temples
-
Measure the distance between them
Recommendation:140–155 mm → wide face 155–165 mm+ → large head
Bridge Width
Measure the narrowest part of your nose bridge to see if glasses will sit securely or slip.
Recommendation:Bridge ≥ 18 mm Or adjustable nose pads
Temple Length
Measure from the front of the frame to the end of the temple behind your ear. Too short → digs in, too long → unstable.
Recommended: 145–155 mm+
Once you have these measurements, compare them with the dimensions of the glasses you picked. If they are similar, the glasses are likely your perfect fit.
2.How to Tell if Glasses Really Fit
Your glasses should:
-
Be as wide as or wider than your face
-
Not pinch your temples
-
Stay in place without sliding
-
Not press behind the ears
3.Best Frame Shapes for Large Heads
The right frame shape can improve comfort and facial balance:
-
Wide rectangular frames — balances proportions
-
Oversized aviators — large lenses, wider fit
