TMS with the small head...are you female? I am petite 105 lbs. female with small head and am wary of a "medium" mask.

I am a little guy, 140 lbs and the medium mask was a little tight on me me but works just fine.

While the mask IS adjustable for head diameter, I'm not sure it would work for a small female. This mask was purchased for a fairly large man and, for him, it works great.

My Morab wears a cob. The horse size was too loose and tended to stretch and become loose. I would suggest cob size. The mask is VERY stretchy but doesn't seem to be too tight when on.

I'm 5'6 and 145lb. I bought the small per the recommendations and it's way too tight on my face. After wearing it for 5 mins, I have a huge red crease on the bridge of my nose because it's so tight. If you have a wider nose, the small is going to be some what uncomfortable. I'm hoping I can get an exchange for a medium.

I, an average size guy with an average size nose (my opinion) find the mask comfortable. I do not wear it in bed but for napping in a recliner. It has nice concave areas for the eyes & the velcroe on the straps works for adjustability.

I also have a small head, and just tried them on my 5 year old daughter. On the smallest setting, they fit both of our heads comfortably, and there's enough tension in the ear pieces to hold onto my head without causing any discomfort. These are a nice tight fit. :)

Well see if you think you're a smaller person go with the small. They can't base it on diameter of your head. I have a big head. I play football and wear the biggest size. So that's why I got a large. It's all on your discretion. If you wear a smaller sized hat than most people play it safe with the medium if you're unsure. But if you have a really small head go with the small. But I played it safe because I know a medium would never fit me. So I would go with the medium just in case. I think the weight they put on for sizes is just a guide line you know?

Oh ok, I see. But honestly, don't worry about your weight in relationship to the size of the mask. I'm average size, average weight, slightly big headed, and the L size mask fits me allright

Chin size is more the variable than head/face size. If the person has a very narrow or pointed chin there may be some leakage along the bottom of the mask.

Hi, I purchased the smallest one 0.5 think it is, for my face. I got the larger for my stomach. The face is sensitive so use the smallest on the facial skin. Good luck !!!

The 6800 (medium) MAY work if you have a thin face and average head size for your body. I have an inch on you and a little more body weight with a thin face. I use the 6900 (large). My wife has a smaller build than you and uses the 6800. I tried my wife's 6800 and it was very uncomfortable. My 6900 is very comfortable. The mask has a soft perimeter contact with the skin and will adjust to your facial/neck features. Four strap adjustments can be easily snugged while having a degree of comfort. You need a good fit to prevent leakage, but you also need comfort. I believe I would opt for the 6900 (Large). Both use the same filters and mask protectors. By the way, don't forget the shield protectors-they are well worth the money. Let me know if I am right on this one. It may help others. Thanks.

I have an average size head and got a small- only size available at time of order- and while it is snug, I would say that is preferable to being too loose. also, it will over time somewhat stretch. also consider its use- if it is to protect during vigorous contact, such as cane fighting, you definitely want it snug, not loose. realize this isn't a definitive answer, but small/medium I would try small. you can always exchange and prime shipping was very prompt.

I did not really find any differences in the 'sizes'. I thought I bought 2 sizes, a Med for me, and a Small for my wife. But after using them both, I have yet to find out which is the smaller one. In reality, you must buy it and try it out. If you try it out, just remember to minimize any stubble around the mask / face interface. Also test the seal on the mask... meaning plug the side filter holes (with them off) and inhale. If the mask sticks to your face, you are good to go. If not, they the face / mask seal is bad. Sweat or Vaseline can help make that seal better. After all, that seal provides the filtration benefits you are purchasing the mask for.

I have quite a small head circumference, and have found it fits very snugly. It's super-comfortable...the fit shouldn't be a problem at all.

I am a 5'11" female who weighs 150 lbs. Despite my height and weight the Adult SM is still huge. I'd recommend sticking with the SM for your size.

Yes, they do squeeze to small head. Sometimes they feel a little too tight on me, I have a normal size head.

Hello, the mask is great. But I don't think it will fit with larged size heads. Personnally, it was for an actor in an amateur movie and that was good. But myself, I could'nt wear it, it was too small. But I know I got a big large head. ;) So, there's a risk, yeah.

Yes, girl! I feel like it holds really well, and I have a teeny lil petite head. Maybe just don't head bang? Go WORK! :)
