Step 1: Use a seamstress tape measure, ribbon, or string and wrap it around your neck until it’s snug, but still comfortable.

 

Step 2: When the tape, ribbon or string feels right, mark the point where one end of the tape measure or ribbon touches the other.

 

Step 3: If you used a tape measure, simply lay it down and take note of the measurement. If you use a ribbon or string, lay it next to a ruler and note the length.

 

Step 4: Provide your measurement to the nearest 1/2 inch.
