Big Head Glasses Frames: My Search for the Right Fit
I have a big head, and finding big head glasses frames that don't squeeze or look tiny has been a journey. Here's what finally worked.
The Big Head Challenge
Standard frames would:
- Squeeze my temples painfully
- Look disproportionately small
- Cause pressure headaches
- Leave red marks on my temples
My Size Requirements
With a head circumference of 60cm, I need:
- Lens width: 56mm minimum
- Bridge: 19-20mm
- Temple length: 145-150mm
- Total frame width: 145mm+
Where to Find Large Frames
I search specifically for:
- "Large frame glasses"
- "Wide fit glasses"
- "XL glasses frames"
- "Big and tall eyewear"
Frame Styles That Work
For big heads, I found:
- Bold, substantial frames - Look proportionate
- Rectangular shapes - Balance my face
- Flexible hinges - Accommodate width better
The Result
Properly sized frames eliminated all my discomfort. They look proportionate and feel comfortable all day. Don't settle for standard sizing if you have a big head.
