Steps
Download Article
Locate a small, thin plastic bag. The bag should not be a zipper-type food bag, but should be soft and pliable end to end.
Place the hand you want the bangle to go over inside the bag. The bag should reach up to your wrist.[1]Advertisement
Smooth the bag as flat as possible around your hand.
Gently push the bangle onto your hand.
As the bangle reaches the hand's widest part (i.e., the line between the base of the thumb and the base of the pinkie), fold your thumb under your hand until it touches the pinkie. This will make your hand as narrow as possible.[2]
Continue to push the bangle gently over your hand. If the bangle gets stuck, try twisting it as you push. Do not force it.[3]
Once the bangle passes the widest part of your hand, push it up onto your wrist, remove the plastic bag, and enjoy!
Finished.

Community AnswerYou can put moisturizer or soap over your hand. Then make sure you take it off on your bed so it doesn't break.
Tips
- Save the bag and use it to get the bangle off when you no longer want to wear it.Thanks
- If you try this method and the bangle will not pass over your narrowed hand, the bangle is just too small. Look for the bangle in a larger size.Thanks
- A very thin plastic bag works best.Thanks
Warnings
- Be especially careful with glass bangles, as they might break and cut your hand if they are pushed with too much force.Thanks
- Similarly, too-small silver or other fine metal bangles might bend or deform when passing over your knuckles.Thanks
- Some Indian lac bangles can shatter if they are forced over the hand, even if the lac is applied over a metal frame.Thanks
- Do not force the bangle over your hand. You could damage the bangle and/or bruise your knuckles.Thanks
- Be aware that when using this method there is a risk that the bangle bracelet may be on your arm permanently or cut off if it is too small, or your hand too large even if you use the same method to try to remove itThanks
