1. Measure at the end of the day
Your fingers are most likely to be at its largest at the end of the day.2. Don’t forget about your knuckle
Allow enough room for your knuckle. If your knuckle is a lot larger than the base of your finger, measure both areas and choose a size in between the two.
3. Measure the exact finger where you will wear the ring
The fingers on your dominant hand are usually slightly larger than your non-dominant hand. The same fingers on opposite hands may not always be the same size. It is important that you measure the exact finger which you will wear the ring.
4. Temperature and diet can affect your finger size
Cold weather can shrink your fingers, whereas heat and high-sodium foods can make your fingers swell.
