Can I wear my ring in the shower?

Yes, you can wear many rings in the shower, but it's generally best to remove them beforehand.

Water itself is usually not a problem for durable materials like tungsten and titanium, which are resistant to rust, tarnishing, and corrosion. However, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash can leave behind residue that dulls the ring's appearance and builds up over time.

Showering also increases the risk of your ring slipping off, especially when soap makes your skin and the ring more slippery than usual.

Removing your ring before showering can help:

• Prevent soap buildup
• Maintain its shine and finish
• Reduce the risk of losing it
• Keep gemstones and settings cleaner

While the occasional shower won't harm most tungsten or titanium rings, taking it off beforehand is the best way to keep it looking its best for longer.
