How to Measure Your Ring Size
There are a few different ways that you can measure your ring size at home. The most common way is to measure the inside diameter of a ring that you already wear. You can also use a string or a strip of paper to measure the circumference of your finger and then use a ring size chart to determine your ring size. If you don’t have a ring that fits you or you don’t want to measure your finger, you can also measure the inside diameter of a ring that you already wear.
Use a ring sizer
There are a few ways to measure your ring size at home, but the most accurate way is to use a ring sizer. Ring sizers are small plastic or metal rings that you can use to measure the circumference (distance around) of your finger. Once you know the circumference of your finger, you can find your corresponding ring size on a ring size chart.
If you don’t have a ring sizer, you can use a strip of paper or a string to measure the circumference (distance around) of your finger. Once you have the measurement, find your corresponding ring size on a ring size chart.
Measure your ring with a ruler
To measure your ring size using a ruler, wrap a flexible measuring tape or a strip of paper around the base of your finger. Make sure the tape or paper is snug against your skin, but not too tight. Mark the spot where the end of the tape or paper meets with a pen or pencil, then measure the distance with your ruler. Every millimeter on the ruler is equivalent to one ring size. For example, if your finger measures 1.8 centimeters (cm), then you would need a ring that is size 18.
How to Convert Your Ring Size
Depending on where you live, ring sizes can be measured in centimeters or inches. The United States uses inches, while countries like Canada and the United Kingdom use centimeters.
Convert your ring size to inches
To measure your ring size at home, you will need two things: a flexible measuring tape and a piece of string no wider than a 1/4 inch. If you do not have a flexible measuring tape, you can use a regular rulers. Just be sure to allow for the width of the string when making your measurement.
To find your ring size in inches, simply wrap the measuring tape or string around the base of your finger. Be sure not to pull too tight or leave too much slack. The measurement should be taken at a point on your finger where the ring will sit comfortably—usually near the base. Once you have your measurement, simply consult the chart below to find your corresponding ring size in inches.
