How To Find Your Ring Size

In this video, I'm going to show you how to find your ring size. What you will need is a ring sizer, and there are two different types of sizing; you have an American sizing system, and you have the British sizing system. I have a British sizing system which uses the letters of the alphabet, and the American sizing system uses numbers.

Most jewellers will have a ring sizer, and you choose one that you think might be the correct size for your finger, and when you're measuring your ring size, try to measure it on a day that your fingers are not swollen. So, on a cool day, because during the summer, you will find that your ring size might be a size bigger, and in the winter, that ring might slip out. So, to find the correct, you could try on lots of different sizes and find the correct one, and the correct one should fit snugly, so it should slip on, with a little bit of difficulty coming off, while sit comfortably on your finger.

To measure your ring size, there are two ways of doing it. One way is that you can buy a plastic measuring face; you put it around your finger and pull tightly. If you're using this method, you need to measure the thickest part of your finger.

For some people, that might be the knuckle, for others it might be this section, and again, the same method applies; you pull it tightly around the thickest part of your finger and then slip it on. For me, it's my knuckle, that feels pretty comfortable, and that is the size, J. If you are making your own ring, you could use this method to measure to find your ring size.

So I am a size J, I could use a ruler and now measure the size J. The length of size J is 5.5 millimeters.

If you don't have one of the little plastic tools, you could use a strip of paper. You take the paper and wrap it around the finger, and where the paper meets the end, and you measure, and it's the same length, 5.5 centimeters.

What I would recommend is to put a line there immediately once you've measured your ring size and write the size down. Often, people will end up using the wrong length of the paper, so you know that this is the length of your finger. And that's how you find your ring size. .
