💎 How to Measure Your Wrist for the Perfect Bracelet Fit

A Complete Guide by San Liora

Have you ever ordered a bracelet online and then received it only to find it squeezing your wrist or slipping off? You're not by yourself. Finding a bracelet that fits like it was made for you is more important than simply choosing a style you adore.

At San Liora, we think that jewelry should feel right in addition to sparkling. To assist you in measuring your wrist at home and selecting the perfect bracelet for your comfort, style, and lifestyle, we have put together this comprehensive guide.

✨ Why Getting the Right Bracelet Fit Matters

Getting the right size is crucial whether you're purchasing the bracelet for yourself or as a present. A bracelet that doesn't fit well can:

  • Slip off the wrist and become misplaced or broken.
  • feel uncomfortable and too tight to wear.
  • Disrupt the elegance of your attire.
  • detract from the bracelet's intended charm or design

Conversely, a bracelet that fits well:

  • feels safe and at ease all day long.
  • enhances the shape of your wrists naturally.
  • fits the wrist perfectly and best displays the design.
  • remains stationary without turning or moving excessively.

Every bracelet style behaves differently, from bold bangles and delicate chains to stacked cuffs and charm pieces. Measuring your wrist guarantees that you always get it right.

🧵 What You'll Need to Measure Your Wrist

Get one of the following supplies before you start:

  • A flexible measuring device, preferably a tailor's tape
  • OR a non-stretch string or a piece of paper
  • A pencil or pen
  • If you're using paper or string, a ruler
  • A phone or notebook to record the number

You only need a few basic items that you already have at home; no special equipment is required.

📏 How to Measure Your Wrist – Step-by-Step Guide

🪡 Option A: Using a Measuring Tape

  • Alright, grab a measuring tape and lay it flat around your wrist, just below the wrist bone—the spot where most people usually wear bracelets.
  • Make sure it sits snug but isn’t too tight; you should be able to slip a finger underneath easily.
  • Check where the tape meets, and that number is your wrist size.
  • Just jot it down in inches or centimeters, whatever you prefer.

📄 Option B: Using a Strip of Paper or String

  • Wrap a piece of string or a thin strip of paper around your wrist.
  • Once you find the spot where the end overlaps, make a mark.
  • Then, lay the strip flat and measure it with a ruler.
  • Finally, jot down your wrist size.

📐 Bracelet Sizing Chart – How Much to Add?

Now that you have your wrist size, it’s time to decide how you want your bracelet to fit. Some people prefer a close fit, while others like it loose for movement.

Fit Style Add This Much Description
Snug Fit + 0.25" to 0.5" (0.6–1.2 cm) Just above wrist size—sits close to skin, minimal movement
Comfort Fit + 0.75" to 1" (1.9–2.5 cm) Slightly loose—most common for everyday wear
Loose Fit + 1.25" (3.2 cm) or more Drapes and moves freely—ideal for fashion stacking

 

💍 Bracelet Styles & Their Ideal Fit

Remember that every type of bracelet fits slightly differently:

  • Bracelets made of chains or links are typically worn comfortably for flexibility.
  • Tennis bracelets should be snug, but not too tight. Make your wrist about 0.75 inches longer.
  • Cuff Bracelets: Usually worn snug, but frequently adjustable.
  • Charm bracelets: Require a little extra space so that the charms can hang freely.
  • Although beaded bracelets are typically elastic, proper sizing is still necessary.
  • Bangles: They don't open like others do. As a result, you will measure your hand rather than your wrist (see next section).

✋ Special Section: Measuring for Bangles

Since bangles are rigid and slip over your hand (instead of being clasped around your wrist), you’ll need to measure the widest part of your hand, not the wrist.

How to Measure for Bangles:

  1. As though you were sliding on a bangle, close your fingers together.
  2. Wrap the widest portion of your knuckles with tape or string.
  3. This is the length of the bangle that fits your hand.
  4. To choose the best fit, compare your results with a bangle size chart.
