Will these <\/i>round diamond studs<\/i><\/span><\/a> shrink? <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Do diamonds shrink over time? The short answer is no, but many people think that they do. <\/span><\/p>\n

The phenomenon of thinking your diamonds are shrinking is often referred to as Shrinking Diamond Syndrome (or sometimes Diamond Shrinkage Syndrome). Chemically and physically, diamonds do not shrink. But the owner of a diamond can get used to seeing that diamond over time and their perception of how big it looks can change. <\/span><\/p>\n

Another thing that can make a diamond seemingly \u201cshrink\u201d is dirt or grime. Diamonds naturally get dirty over time, which reduces the sparkle of the diamond. That reduction in sparkle can make a diamond seemingly shrink, as it will have a far less visual presence. <\/span><\/p>\n

How To Cure Shrinking Diamond Syndrome<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

So, what can you do if you have Shrinking Diamond Syndrome? Well, first, if your diamond hasn\u2019t been cleaned recently, you should get it cleaned. If you purchased your diamond through Diamond Studs, we offer free lifetime cleanings. You can also clean your jewelry at home with a soft toothbrush, soap, and water. <\/span><\/p>\n

Another thing you can do to try to cure SDS is to take a break from wearing (and looking at) your diamond. Put your jewelry in a safe place for a week or two, then try wearing it again and see how you feel. <\/span><\/p>\n
