I got an Obitsu 27in body with a gretel 1/6 25cm head. I also bought a LUTS 1/6 6-7" wig.I got them in the mail as well as a wig cap which is 6-7". The wig and wig cap are HUGE compared to the head. I sent the ebay seller of the head and asked if I could return it for a bigger size, assuming they sebt the wrong size. I also measured the head and my measurements of it are about 11cm around the biggest part of the head. But also looking at pictures of 27in dolls, the heads are small like mine. So I am just very confused as to why the wigs say they are 1/6 and they do not fit the 1/6 doll? Do you have to use Obitsu brand wigs, like is tge sizing unique to the brand or something? Please someone with good knowledge of Obitsu dolls and LUTS dolls ect. help me! :(

A Gretel 1/6 head cannot possibly be 25cm circumference around the forehead. 25cm is probably the size Obitsu body the head is meant for (though it may also fit the 27cm body - don't know)
I think the little Gretel head probably uses a size 3-4 wig (means 3-4 inches around at the forehead).
Here is how you measure for a wig

And just so you know - Obitsus are not BJDs. They are plastic and some pieces have ball-like ends but they are constructed with physically attaching joints or internal flexible armature, not strung together with elastic. BJD's are strung. The Gretel is very cute though. I also like one of the little 21-23cm body's open eye head.
