Jewelry, such as rings, bracelets, and necklaces, can accentuate one’s beauty, but it can also get stuck on our fingers, wrists, or necks despite initially fitting well. Check out these tips to help you remove stuck jewelry with ease.
1 Method 1: Use Lubricants
Lubricants such as soap, body lotion, olive oil, petroleum jelly, or lip balm can help you remove stuck jewelry smoothly and safely without damaging your skin.
Instructions:
Step 1: Apply a sufficient amount of lubricant on the trapped area and ensure it gets underneath the jewelry. For soap, lather it up with a bit of water.
Step 2: Rotate the jewelry around the trapped area once or twice while applying more lubricant.
Step 3: Gently pull the jewelry out while rotating it if necessary. Using lubricants with cold water can reduce pain and minimize allergic reactions.
2 Method 2: Use Cold Water
On colder days, you may have noticed that your fingers, wrists, or necks feel looser when wearing jewelry. Take advantage of this by following these simple steps:
Step 1: Soak the trapped area in cold water for a few minutes. Avoid using icy water as it may harm your skin.
Step 2: Gently rotate and remove the jewelry with ease.
3 Method 3: Use Thread
Step 1: Use your hands or a needle to pass the thread under the stuck jewelry. Then, wrap the thread around the trapped area.
Note: Avoid wrapping it too tightly to prevent skin damage.
Step 2: Unravel the thread in the direction of removing the jewelry, ensuring that the jewelry moves along with the thread. This way, you can safely remove the jewelry without hurting your skin.
Note: After removing the stuck jewelry, gently clean the area. Only wear the jewelry again once it has been adjusted to fit you properly.
