I REALLY don't like the loose feel. It bounces around when I do yoga and digs into my arm. However mine is a 15 and to order a 14 will apparently take a very long time.

My understanding is the bracelet is not intended to fit loose like a bangle. It also depends on where on the arm or wrist you want to wear it. (Mine rests about two inches above my wrist bone.) having said that, it's totally a personal preference. Good luck!

Get what you are comfortable with, that is the most important! Not what the SA thinks, she is not the one paying for it and she won´t be wearing it, you are. I´d get the 17 if I were you.

Hi all! Currently in a bit of a dilemma. I was fitted in store for the Love bracelet in a size 16, which fit quite well except I have protruding wrist bones and I could feel the screws every time I moved by hand. The SA was certain that size 16 would be perfect for me, as she recommends a tight fit, however I felt like it was a bit too snug for my comfort. From my understanding the SA's always seem to push the smaller size over the bigger. The size 17 was definitely looser and fit like a true bangle. Does anyone have any experience with what I am currently deciding between? Suggestions greatly appreciated xx :kiss:

For reference: my wrist is about 15 cm on largest part

I read that for a snug fit, get the size 1cm more than you wrist size. For a looser fit, get the size 2 cm more.
i think that a size 17 sounds right for you

If 16 is uncomfortable in anyway, then I'd go for the 17. I can imagine how irritating and uncomfy it can be to feel the screws hitting your wristbone every time you move your hand.

My wrist is 14cm and my 16 fits perfectly, I do not feel it hitting my wristbone in anyway when I move my hand. I agree that 17 sounds right for you.

I recently got mine and I was sized for an 18 (from memory I think my wrist is about 16.7cm or something like that). When I did try it on, I moved my hand in a circular motion. The tightness around my wrist (where you measure your pulse point) where the bracelet was sitting was just plain uncomfortable - even for five minutes! I decided to size up to a 19 and it is snug but it has freedom to move up and down my arm (for maybe about 4 - 5cm), but it is a bit of a struggle to turn it about my arm.

The only regret by sizing up, is that even as I am typing this now, the bracelet is bumping about everywhere and well when I take showers well I give my right arm free threading sessions when I am absent mildly washing myself. Pretty minor first world problems but overall I am happy that I sized up!

Hi everyone,

I am buying a YG Love soon but I just need help choosing a size... I cannot, for the life of me, decide on one! Both fit and are both comfortable. Size 16 cannot rotate on my wrist, whereas size 17 can. Size 16 goes about maximum 2-2.5 inches up my arm (towards shoulder), and size 17 goes up about 3-3.5 inches. I am afraid that if I choose size 16, it will be uncomfortable in the summer when it's hot. But, if I choose size 17, apparently that can lead to more scratching/banging because it's looser. Unfortunately, the SA was not very helpful and did not offer any suggestions.

What kind of fit did you Love bracelet owners choose and why?

I've attached 2 photos of size 16 in this post. I will attach photos of size 17 in the next post!
