Can I Shower with my Wedding Ring?

Um, no. 

That’s the short answer.

The long answer? Even if bathing products feel soft to the touch, they can be abrasive to certain gemstones and metals. There are also products that are straight-up abrasive (think exfoliants) which are obviously more damaging.

Of course, you don’t notice those little scratches at first. Its only over time that those micro-abrasions accumulate and create a dull appearance.

And its not just abrasive components in your bath products; it’s also oils in those same products. Oilsgather over time and dull the finish of your engagement ring.

And let’s not forget the big elephant in the room:

THE DRAIN!

It can happen in an instant and cause you hours worth of pain and expense (call your plumber and ask how much he or she charges for a visit).

Don’t think you ring will slip off that easily? Think again. Fingers change size all the time, even throughout a day. (Did you know your finger is thinner in cold weather? It’s true.)

OUR ADVICE: Take your ring off before every shower. Get in the habit of taking it off in a room other than the bathroom (which has several danger zones for an errant ring). Every time. No exceptions.

Trust us, you’ll be grateful. So will your ring.

Just. Don't. Do. It.
