Does Jewelry Ring Size Change Throughout the Day?

Does Jewelry Ring Size Change Throughout the Day?


3 minute read

Let’s be honest here, jewelry ring size matters and throughout the day our rings do not always fit our fingers perfectly. It is normal for your ring size to fluctuate during the day, especially during the warmer and colder seasons. In this article, we will discuss the various factors that cause ring sizes to fluctuate throughout the day, especially when it comes to solid yellow gold ring sizes. Our body changes throughout the day, but rarely do we think of the fact that the size of our fingers fluctuates. 

 

Why Do My Rings Suddenly Not Fit?

Science has said that the size of your fingers tends to expand a little in the morning, and then eventually shrink in size a little when it’s cold and expand slightly when it is hot, but generally straighten out to regular size during the day. A person’s body weight also affects the jewelry ring size. Gaining weight can make your ring size tighter and losing weight can make your ring size become loose and even drop off.

Why Does My Ring Fit Tighter in the Morning?

Choosing the right jewelry ring size is really important in the long run. If the ring fits too tight then you will probably see yourself not wearing it. Early in the morning and late at night, you might find your fingers puffier than during the day. It is probably because people’s diet can affect water retention and bloating, which makes rings feel tighter. Your finger size is most stable in the mid-afternoon after you have eaten lunch, hence this is probably the best time to measure your ring size for a wedding or even for your personal use. Rings can be bought in 14k Yellow Gold, 14k White Gold, 14k Rose Gold, and Sterling Silver.

How Much Does Ring Size Change Over Time?

Ring size fluctuates over time and depends entirely on lifestyle. In fact, some people’s ring size may change permanently as they get older, while other people’s may never change. If your ring size fluctuates drastically, you should consider purchasing adjustable rings. At Helen Ficalora, we have products such as the Cherry Blossom Flower Adjustable Ring and the Hole Dot Ring With Diamonds. Visit our website today to shop for a beautiful ring for yourself.

Is It Better to Size a Ring Up or Down? 

It is always better to size up your ring as it is much easier to resize a ring that is too big than it is to resize one that is too small. At Helen Ficalora, we provide a wide variety of choices of rings. We have rings with a single gemstone or birthstone. We also have a collection of rings with several diamonds on them. Some of the rings even come in unique shapes and sizes.
