How to Measure Ring Size

How to know my ring size? There are many measuring methods for ring sizes; however, you may find that some get you an incorrect outcome. I'm sharing this post here to help you measure correctly.

All you need is – paper, a pair of scissors, a pen, a ruler, and a ring-size chart.

Step 1: Cut out a rectangle paper slice

You can use a ruler to determine a rectangle's length and width and cut it out with your scissors.

Step 2: Wrap the strip of paper around finger

Wrap the strip of paper around your finger and mark with your pen where it overlaps.

Step 3: Make a Mark on Paper for Measurement

Straight the paper against the ruler and measure the report from the beginning to the marked line.

Step 4: Find the Correct Size

Compare the length with the ring size chart, and you will know which size fits you the most.

Sure, you can replace the paper with a string or yarn that is not stretchy for ring size measurement. However, if you are about to purchase a wedding band or a ring with a wide band, we still recommend using paper with width to cover the proximal phalanx.

Your finger knuckle is also a must to measure since some of the knuckles are bigger than the root. So it would be best if you guaranteed the ring passes the knuckle first.
