How to Measure Your Bangle Size
Method 1: Using an Existing Bangle
- Take a well-fitting bangle.
- Place it on a ruler.
- Measure the inside diameter in cm.
- Match the measurement with our chart.
Method 2: Using Your Hand Measurement
- Bring your thumb and little finger together.
- Wrap a measuring tape around the widest part of your knuckles.
- Note the circumference in cm.
- Compare with our chart above to find your perfect size.
Quick Tips
- Always measure on your dominant hand (slightly bigger).
- If you’re between two sizes, choose the larger size for comfort.
- Metal / rigid bangles = exact fit. Adjustable bangles = flexible fit.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Measuring the Wrist Instead of the Knuckles
- Why it’s wrong: Bangles must slide over your knuckles, not just sit on your wrist.
- Fix: Always measure the widest part of your hand—your knuckles—while making a fist
2. Using a Loose or Stretched Thread
- Why it’s wrong: Threads can stretch or shift, giving inaccurate circumference.
- Fix: Use a firm paper strip or a non-stretchable string for better precision
3. Not Accounting for Hand Dominance
- Why it’s wrong: Your dominant hand (the one you write with) is usually slightly larger.
- Fix: Measure the dominant hand for a more accurate fit
4. Rounding Measurements Too Early
- Why it’s wrong: Small differences in diameter (even 1–2 mm) can affect fit.
- Fix: Note the exact measurement first, then match it to the closest bangle size
5. Ignoring Fit Preference
- Why it’s wrong: Some prefer snug fits, others like a looser feel.
- Fix: Decide if you want a tight, comfort, or loose fit before finalizing the size
6. Assuming “Free Size” Fits Everyone
- Why it’s wrong: “FS” or Free Size bangles may not suit very small or broad hands.
- Fix: Stick to exact measurements if you want a secure and elegant fit.
