Avoid these mistakes while measuring ring sizes
It is important to keep in mind when determining the ideal ring size that the circumference can alter throughout the day and also with different temperatures. For example fingers tend to be slightly thinner in the morning, and when it's cold. They also they expand slightly when it is hot. Additionally fingers of the left and right hand often have different circumferences. Weight fluctuations and pregnancy are other factors that can affect the circumference.
To take these changes to account for these fluctuations, it is recommended to take multiple measurements in different situations - i.e. at different times of the day and with different temperatures. It is recommended to take the measurements quickly after you purchase the ring.
The proper location to measure is the middle joint of the finger. Therefore, measure between the second and third joints. If it's a thumb ring take a measurement between the joint of the thumb and the base of the thumb.
To determine the perfect ring-size, it's best to take multiple measurements. Measure in the morning, at noon and in the evening, in warmer and cooler environments and on different days. Add all measurements together and divide by the number of different measurements to calculate the average ring circumference.
How do you determine the right size of the ring?
The best way to determine the size of a ring is to measure it on the finger which will wear the ring. Alternatively, you can measure using a ring that already fits. However, this does not take into account fluctuations due to the time of day or temperature. The measurement isn't quite as precise. The accuracy of the tools available can also vary. For instance an expert ring sizer or a ring template provides more precise values than, for instance string, which is frequently recommended as a measurement aid.

In jewelers and online there are a variety of sizes of rings templates. There are two primary variations.

In the second alternative, you can use a template that has the ring sizes punched out or a range of models of rings cut out. You can test the size by placing your finger through the cutouts.
