But how can you calculate it from the comfort of your own home? Keep reading to find out!
Why is it important to know your ring size?
Picture this scenario: you've found the ring of your dreams, you make an impulse purchase, and... it doesn't fit. Too big, it slips off; too small, it squeezes. Knowing your ring size not only saves you time and hassle, but it also ensures that your jewelry feels like an extension of yourself, comfortable and secure.
Measuring at Home: A Simple Process
You don't need to be an expert jeweler to measure your ring size. With a few simple steps and tools that everyone has at home, you can get an accurate measurement.
Step 1: Get a measuring tape or a strip of paper
You can use a flexible measuring tape or, if you don't have one, cut a narrow strip of paper.
Step 2: Wrap your finger in the tape
Make sure it goes around the widest part of your finger, which is usually the knuckle. Don't wrap it too tightly; it should be snug but comfortable.
Step 3: Mark the meeting point
With a pen, mark where the tape or paper meets when wrapping your finger.
Step 4: Measure the length
Use a ruler to measure from the end of the tape or paper to the mark you made. Write down the length in millimeters.
Step 5: Find your size
With the length in millimeters and use the following formula
Ring size = Length in millimeters x 0,321
Additional Tips
-
Measure your finger at the end of the day, when it is at its largest. This is because your fingers can swell slightly throughout the day due to temperature changes and other factors.
-
If you are between sizes, always choose the larger one. It is easier to resize a slightly loose ring than a tight one.
