How Often Should You Get Your Ring Dipped?
Like most things, the dipping on your ring will wear off over time. This may leave you to ask how often you should get your ring re-dipped.
Once a year. In most cases, you should try and get your ring dipped every year. This will prevent too much wear and will keep its shiny look. This could get pretty expensive but maybe worth it in the end.
Twice a year. Although the price could add up over time, if you could afford to do so you could get your ring dipped twice a year. After many coats, the ring will no longer wear and will improve the look of your ring.
Every other year. If you don’t have enough money to invest in dipping your ring each year, every other year could work just fine depending on the condition of the ring itself. If your ring doesn’t show any apparent defects or wear and tear, then it could go as long as needed without getting it re-dipped.
