While it might be a bit more expensive JulieAnn. i would strongly recommend you go to a person that specializes in wigs.
Not only will they fit you with one the proper size, but they will also fit you with a colour that suits you and also the proper length of hair.
The fist one i bought I went to a lady that Specializes in Wigs, for cancer patients, and also is very good to the TG community.
I was treated so well the first time i was there, have been back and bought 3 more since .
A good looking wig is one of your biggest assets. Good Luck

I second what Denise says.
Go and see a specialist. I did but only after wasting money buying wigs that didn't suit me. I was treated really well and really enjoyed the experience and I came away with the perfect wig.
I don't know any wig places where you live but if you ever come to the north west of England I can introduce you to my supplier.

There are online guides. Like http://beautytrends.com/how-to-choose-a-wig.asp
I got my first wig from there, but my wife didn't care for the look. So she took me to one of the local wig salons and I had a professional fitting. The lady has a number of trans clients and was very helpful, as you can see from my avatar.
My problem was not only my facial shape, but the size of my neck. Seems to me if one has a leaner longer looking neck they can wear just about any type wig.
