How Do I Keep My Tennis Bracelet From Falling Off

Have you ever found yourself constantly worrying about your tennis bracelet falling off? It's a beautiful piece of jewelry, but it can be nerve-wracking to think it might slip off your wrist at any moment. Considering the diamond tennis bracelet price, this concern is even more understandable.

Well, you're not alone, and luckily, there are some simple steps you can take to keep your bracelet secure. 

In this article, we'll go over some practical tips and tricks to ensure your tennis bracelet stays put, so that you can wear it with confidence and ease. Let's dive in!

Get The Right Fit

If your tennis bracelet is too loose, it will fall off and if it’s too tight you’ll feel uncomfortable. Hence, proper sizing is essential to keep your bracelet in place.

A rule of thumb is that you must be able to fit a finger between your wrist and the tennis bracelet after wearing it.

How can I get the appropriate-sized tennis bracelet?

Measure your wrist using a ribbon or a piece of string and add one and a half or two and a half centimeters to the measurement. 

Have you got a too-large or too-small bracelet by mistake? Don’t worry. You can get it resized easily from a jeweler for less than $100. However, the cost may vary based on your location and the metal used for the chain.

Fix The Clasp Properly

Tennis bracelets come with various clasp options. Below are some of them:

  • Lobster clasp: Lobster clasp works with a sprig mechanism actuating a small lever to open and close. This is sturdy and easy to use.

  • Spring lever clasp: This works the same as a lobster clasp, but it has a circle with a small metal piece that opens and closes when you push on the spring.

  • Barrel clasp: Barrel clasp has two barrel-shaped closures which fasten together through a screw mechanism.

What’s the safest clasp? If you fasten properly, all the above clasps will keep your bracelet from falling off. Choose the one that you can wear easily and comfortably.

Worn-off or damaged clasps can’t hold the bracelet on your wrist for long. Hence, inspect the clasp regularly before you wear it. Replace or repair the damaged clasps promptly. 

Consider Adding A Safety Chain Or Clasp

A safety chain or extra safety clasp is a thin chain that connects the two ends of your tennis bracelet. This will hold the bracelet even if the main clasp comes undone.

A safety clasp provides extra security and peace of mind. You can ask your jeweler to add a safety chain for a small price.

Buy A High-Quality Tennis Bracelet

Choosing a high-quality bracelet is important. Low-quality tennis bracelets will wear off quickly and have a higher risk of falling off your wrists.

Hence, purchase your tennis bracelet from a reputable jeweler. This also prevents you from buying a low-quality bracelet for a higher price.

Check out this article (link for the cluster article 3) for a more detailed guide on diamond tennis bracelet prices. Check thoroughly for the safety features.

The links and clasps must be tight and not easily visible. An ideal diamond tennis bracelet will appear as an endless line of diamonds.

Fashion Tip: While wearing the diamond tennis bracelet, stack it with bangles, charm bracelets, or beaded bracelets. This adds a trendy, layered look to your wrists and the additional bracelets act as a buffer to keep your tennis bracelet in place.

Be Mindful During Activities

There’s a risk of your bracelet getting caught on something and falling off while you engage in specific types of activities such as sports, gardening, heavy cleaning, hiking, etc. It’s better to take off your bracelet while doing these activities.

Water can also weaken clasps and settings. So, keep your bracelet dry and take it off while swimming and showering.

Store Your Tennis Bracelet Safely

Keeping your tennis bracelet safe when it’s not on your wrist is equally important as when you are wearing it.

Store the bracelet in a velvet pouch or in a compartmentalized jewelry box. This will prevent tangling, scratches, and wearing off the clasps.

Final Words

Keeping your diamond tennis bracelet from falling off is about a few simple steps. First, purchase your bracelet from a reputed jewelry shop and ensure you get the right fit.

Inspect whether the clasps are fit and smooth when buying. Fix the clasp tightly when you wear it and check for any wear or damage. Furthermore, maintain it regularly and store it safely. Consider getting a safety chain for extra security and peace of mind.

By following the above simple steps, you can let your bracelet add that extra sparkle to your day without any stress.
