Ring size measuring tips
- Temperature : Don’t measure when your body temperature is either too cold or too hot. Fingers get bigger in warm weather and shrink in cold weather. Measure your finger in room temperature or warm temperatures at the end of the day, as the finger will be at its largest during this time
- Measure ring size more than once to eliminate an erroneous reading
