The Importance of Ordering the Proper Ring Size

A ring is a timeless piece of jewelry that deserves to fit perfectly. Whether you are purchasing a ring for yourself or as a gift for someone else, getting the right ring size is essential. A ring that is too loose can easily slip off your finger and become lost or damaged. On the other hand, a ring that is too tight can cause discomfort and leave marks on your skin. It's important to get the right size so that you can enjoy your jewelry comfortably. 

There are several ways you can accurately find your ring size at home. Read on to learn more about how to find your ring size from Going Golden!

Measuring Your Ring Size at Home

Measuring your finger at home is easier than you might think. All you need is a piece of thin string or a piece of paper and a ruler. If you’re using a piece of paper, you’ll start by cutting a strip of paper about half an inch wide. Then wrap the paper or string around the base of your finger, where the ring will sit. Use a pen to mark where the two ends overlap. Use a ruler to measure the length of the paper in millimeters. You’ll then take that measurement, divide it by Pi (3.14) and match it to the ring size chart. If you fall in between two sizes, we recommend you size down. 

Using a Ring Sizer

A ring sizer is a convenient tool that can help you get an accurate measurement of your finger size. You can purchase a ring sizer on our website. Once you receive it, you simply slide the ring sizer onto your finger until it fits snugly. You want it to fit comfortably and ensure it won’t slide off or be too tight. Once you’ve found the perfect setting, you can simply read the size on the side of the ring sizer.

Layering Your Rings

Layering multiple rings on one finger can create a beautiful and trendy look. However, keep in mind that this can affect the way your rings fit. If you plan on layering three or more rings on one finger, it's important to order up half a size. This is because each ring takes up space on your finger, which can cause your overall finger size to increase slightly. By ordering up half a size, you can ensure that all of your rings fit comfortably and look great together. 

Other Considerations When Finding Your Ring Size

When it comes to measuring your ring size, timing is important. Your fingers can change size throughout the day based on temperature, activity level, and other factors. It's best to measure your finger at a time when it's not too hot or cold and when you're relaxed. This will ensure the most accurate measurement possible. Keep in mind that changes in weight can also affect your finger size, so it's a good idea to check your size periodically. If you're pregnant or have recently lost or gained weight, you may need to adjust your ring size accordingly. Be sure to take these factors into account when measuring your finger to ensure a comfortable and secure fit.
