Jamie Waller started Ring My Neck when her pregnant friends began swelling out of their wedding rings. After doing some research, she learned that 75% of pregnant women suffer from edema (swelling) beginning in the fifth month of their pregnancy. It is such an emotional time, a time when women are especially attached to their partner, their marriage, and the ring that symbolizes it. After a short while, other women became interested in Ring My Neck. There are many professions that don't allow women to wear their rings, such as doctors, aestheticians, nurses, hairstylists, massage therapists, and so on. Many women also choose to not wear a ring when playing golf, gardening, or cleaning. Do you have an heirloom ring that belonged to a parent or grandparent that you don't wear on your finger? Ring My Neck has many styles to accommodate that special ring. Many widows find comfort in wearing their spouse's ring on a necklace after their passing. Over the years, a line of necklaces for men has also been added. While Ring My Neck was founded to help pregnant women, that is a small percentage of the customer base now.
