Permanent Bracelet
Have you ever loved a bracelet so much that you didn't want to take it off?
Permanent jewellery has taken the fashion world by storm. They symbolise a committed relationship, are a meaningful gift, and all together very practical options compared to removable jewellery.
What are they exactly? You may be thinking a permanent bracelet attaches to your skin, but this is a common misconception. In fact, the whole process is pretty simple and takes under half an hour.
Once done, a permanent bracelet will look like any other one, other than it does not have a mechanism for taking it on and off.
Say goodbye to clasps and hello to a beautiful new bracelet that will stay with you through thick and thin.

The point of any bracelet, not just permanent ones, is to express yourself and feel good in what you wear.
People choose permanent bracelets for various reasons. The biggest attraction to this clasp-free concept is celebrating a forever bond with another person. Using permanent jewellery shows dedication to one another, whether it be romantic, platonic, or familial.
Other than this, having forever jewellery as part of your ensemble, including bracelets and anklets, takes the weight off of your shoulders. It won't fall off during busy errands and won't tarnish.
This leaves you with a delicate chain bracelet that can put up with whatever day-to-day activities you throw at it. Typically made with precious metals like silver and solid gold, no matter how long it stays on, it's gentle on the skin.
It hurts not one bit. In fact, you likely won't feel any discomfort whatsoever.
Despite the name eluding to a painful process of literally attaching jewellery to your skin, getting a permanent anklet or bracelet doesn't hurt at all.

The bracelet isn't attached to you; it's attached to itself as either end is soldered into one another to complete a loop around your wrist or ankle.
During the soldering or welding, a piece of material is placed between your skin and the tools to ensure you don't feel any of the heat.
It all depends on the material, lifestyle, and who you go to for your permanent bracelet appointment.
Permanent bracelets and anklets are typically very delicate chains; one wrong move can potentially snap it right off. Therefore, opting for high-quality material ensures your bracelet lasts a lifetime.
Pair your fine chain with a matching necklace, like our Paperclip Link Chain Necklace.
Follow the proper care instructions given by the jeweller, which includes avoiding harsh chemicals when washing and cleaning the jewellery regularly with a mild soap.
It's also advised to polish permanent jewellery every six months to keep it from tarnishing.
Yes, they can!
Committing to a bracelet designed to never come off is daunting for a lot of people. However, despite the name, these bracelets and anklets can be removed in a few relatively easy ways.
Forever bracelets, of course, remain on your wrist for as long as you allow them to, but there are instances where this just isn't possible.
Perhaps you simply want a change, or allergies and injuries leave you no other choice but to remove the jewellery quickly.
To break the chain, all you need is a pair of strong scissors or small wire cutters. However, if you use this method, the chain will likely be too damaged to use again - unless repaired by an expert.
If it's not an urgent matter and you want to keep the chain in good condition, visit a jeweller and ask them to remove it for you. It is more expensive to do this, but you can rest easy knowing the chain can be reattached in the future.
Are you missing your permanent bracelet? You may be able to put it back on after removing it yourself or with the help of a professional.
If you cut the chain yourself, take it to a jeweller to see if it's not too damaged; if it is, you'll need a replacement.
They are a huge trend, so you'll want your chain back on sooner rather than later!
A jewellery shop has the special tools needed to re-attach permanent bracelets and anklets. If the chain is in good condition, they will simply weld or solder it again, making it as secure as the first time with a custom fit.
Since they were designed to be your companion throughout life, a shower won't phase these bracelets.
Along with the high-quality material and frequent cleaning on your end, permanent anklets and bracelets won't tarnish or turn your skin green.
To be on the safe side, avoid harsh chemicals when washing.
As well as showering, airport security won't require you to take off the jewellery, so don't worry about bringing wire cutters just in case!
