How to measure a bracelet size?

Finding the ideal size to purchase remains one of the main struggles in online shopping, whether for garments, footwear, or even jewelry. With only a couple of photographs and a precise description to rely on, it can be difficult to predict if anything will fit the way you desire it to.

Luckily, determining what length to choose for bracelets for men or women is not much problematic. In actuality, one of the simplest things to measure is bracelet size. You don't need any specific measurement tools to determine your bracelet size other than when evaluating your ring size. We have written this article to assist you in choosing the ideal bracelet size so let's dig in.

How to Measure a Bracelet Size?

Bracelet in hand

All you need to know is your wrist's circumference in order to measure the bracelet. Your fingers should be slightly extended while you keep your arm in a gentle position. Use the other hand to put a light measuring tape around the wrist where you want to wear the bracelet. Don't strain the tape too tight; simply measure in a relaxed state, and guess what? You got your wrist size measured!

Just keep in mind to add half an inch more to the actual size of your wrist measured to get the definite bracelet size. Let's, for instance:

  • Wrist measurement is 5 inches: Your bracelet size is 5.5 inches. 
  • Wrist measurement is 5.5 inches: Your bracelet size is 6.0 inches. 
  • Wrist measurement is 6 inches: Your bracelet size is 6.5 inches. 
  • Wrist measurement is 6.5 inches: Your bracelet size is 7.0 inches. 

How to Measure Wrist Size Without Measuring Tape?

A flexible measuring tape is not something that everyone has on hand. However, if this is the scenario for you, alternatives are still available. You only need a ruler and anything you can roll around your wrist at its thickest point. You may measure your wrist size without a measuring tape using the following materials:

  • Thread
  • Dental Tooth Floss
  • Shoelace 
  • Ribbon 
  • Paper Strip
