Do you have a small head?

Post Reply New Topic

A little bit higher than is typical, I think. Not really bigger in any other way, though, and with a lot of hair, it's really not noticeable (since having the crop chopped, though, it's become a little more visible).

Convert inches to centimeters. ( 2.54) Use a string if you you dont have a tailor's tape.

Height and head size factor in. Find both and look at the 50th percentile as the average. If below or above you have "that."


For me: 188 cm for height, and 63.5 cm for head circumference.

No, my head is pretty big I find. It doesn't look out of proportion with my body, it's just....big. I find that my face has bolder and bigger features than the average person as well. I have a big nose, which I hate.

I have a larger head than average. I also have high cheekbones as well.

I read in a lot of places (including here) that it is more likely in Autistics to have a bigger head, so I don't quite know why this thread is talking about having small heads is an Aspie thing. My head is average for my build.

People do have different size heads depending on their build. Big-built men have bigger heads, and small, petite women have smaller heads. People with thick hair have heads that look big, but aren't actually that big. I always worried that my head looked big, but then I found it is just because I have really thick hair, and when I had it thinned out a few weeks ago, my head then looked smaller.

I didn't have a big head when I was a baby either. I read somewhere that baby boys are born with a slightly bigger head than baby girls.

I don't think head size is an Asperger thing.

I have a small head. I am 39 but have to buy children hats (usually ages 7 to 9) as all other hats are too big.

Bizarrely I have huge hands and have to wear large size men's gloves.

I'm all over the place proportionally ... !

If everybody's head's supposed to be the same size then why would there by adjustable things on the back of caps?

Average sized body but I do think my head is rather big but not overly massive.

I have a larger than average head size. Read somewhere that large head circumference is correlated with autism. Big head = less communication between the distant parts of the brain, which affects central processing....so someone with a huge head would have GREAT specialized skills, yet less efficient communication between areas. Apparently, the pruning of the excess neurons early in life didn't occur in many of us. PLEASE take this with a grain of salt, because I don't know whether this info is necessarily true, just something i read but can't recall the source.

I think mine is just smaller than average. I'm a 6 7/8 or 55cm in hats (cowboy hats). 170cm tall.
