How to Protect an Oura Ring from Scratches?

Prevention is always better than cure, isn’t it? Let us bring you some tips that will minimize the risks of your Oura ring getting scratched.

Wear the Ring on Your Non-dominant Hand

The first thing is, as Ring, the product manufacturer, explains, the Oura ring is less adjacent if you wear it on your non-dominant hand. By doing this, you minimize the chances of it rubbing with other objects around as you use your non-dominant hand less than your dominant hand in your daily routine.

Don’t Wear the Oura Ring Near Other Rings

As we explained, it would be best if you don’t wear any other rings that would come in contact with your Oura ring. Although the Oura ring is made using robust and durable materials, constant contact with other rings will make it vulnerable to scratches. So, don’t!

Remove it When you Perform Friction work

Yes, if you really care about your ring and want it to last long, this is something that you should keep in your mind. This doesn’t necessarily mean you should remove it when you are in the gym! We hope you get our point.

Store Properly

Although it is designed to wear 24/7, there can be situations where you don’t have to wear it. In such situations, you should make sure you store it properly without leaving chances for it to get scratched. We recommend storing it in a soft pouch or jewellery box to prevent accidental scratches from contact with other items.

Regular cleaning

Regular cleaning is pivotal. As we mentioned earlier, you can use mild soap and a microfiber cloth to remove dirt and other debris. Accumulation of these can lead to discolouration as well.
