You provided a very detailed video on the differences between the two bracelets. I definitely will be purchasing the small Love Bracelet. Your explanation of how to take them off and the cons with the regular size reaffirmed my decision to go for the size small. Enjoy your beautiful bracelets and thanks for sharing.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Thanks for watching! So happy you found it helpful. The screw mechanism on the regular Love bracelet was the reason I didn’t consider buying the Love bracelet for so long. It’s definitely much more user friendly on the small size. Which color are you thinking of getting?

[@GolpoPaatherAshor]

Thanks so much for all the details! Appreciate your effort.

[@StyleDomination]

I want to see this dragon and phoenix bracelet! Sounds lovely! Thanks for the great review!

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Thanks for watching! ❤️ I have a video about my jewelry collection where I show the dragon and phoenix bracelet. Here’s the link if you’re interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/an_YhoZml9R2f68

[@Joshiuma]

I really loved your detailed review .

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Thanks!!!

[@trang8735]

I love that your in laws are so practical and forward thinking to get your the cartier bracelets. I asked my MIL if I can pick put my jewerly. She said no. I ended up getting a set of the Dragon and Phoenix Bangle Necklace and Bangle bracelet. I haven't worn those since my wedding. 😂🤣

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Haha my parents got me the traditional bracelet which like you I haven’t worn since my wedding 😂 So glad I don’t have more of them lying around.

[@leann8205]

LOL I feel your pain....

[@cclover428]

Hi, thks for providing a detailed review. Enjoy your bracelet.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Thanks for watching!! Hope you found it helpful ❤️

[@michellemcrae4557]

I like your story of how and the meaning it was gifted to you. ♥️😊

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Thanks Michelle! ❤️

[@judaz86]

Thank you so much I enjoyed the video and loved how detailed you were and your makeup is so pretty very natural and flawless Have a great day 🤍

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I’m so glad you liked it! And thanks for the sweet compliment ❤️ I hope you’re healthy and safe!

[@reginag7911]

Flat surfaces will always show scratches more than rounded surfaces (color doesn’t matter).

[@jenninui]

yes, please do a review on the Juste un clou,

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

definitely!!! thanks for the input ❤️

[@coletteuy305]

CAROL CHAN hi carol, is yout juste un clou the smaller version or the original?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

It's the smaller version.

[@coletteuy305]

CAROL CHAN thanks! 😊

[@fferkim629]

thank you for your review! I noticed that the smaller white gold is not offered through Cartier... where did your family purchase this one may i ask?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

That’s strange. We got it through the US Cartier website but when I just checked there, I didn’t see it.

[@virginialinares470]

Great review! Thank you! I have a quick question when your love is locked does it still have a clicking sound or slight movement where it locks? Thank you in advance 😊

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I don’t have that issue with mine but someone else commented recently that they noticed the same thing. I wonder if Cartier might have changed something about the bracelet recently…

[@chillwithmari]

Thanks Carol for the awesome review! May i know what is ur wrist circumference? I have a very tiny wrist (13cm) and not sure if the smallest size of the love bracelet will still be too huge for me

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

My wrist size is 14.5 cm and I wear the 16 cm size in the love bracelet. It may be a bit loose on you even if you get the smallest size which is 15 cm because I think I’m actually between sizes (a 15.5 if they were to make that). So the 15 cm would be a whole cm larger than your perfect size which seems like a bit much. But if you’re okay with it being a looser bangle i think it still looks very nice like that.

[@mrslavanderblu]

It will be very very loose. Too large , and you might lose it.

[@huckleberrybear8100]

😱😱 u have such cool in laws!!

[@NeuroPOP1]

I might prefer the smaller one too, because my arm is not so small (i've an 18) and it seems to me like the bigger bracelet makes my wrist look even bigger, whereas thinner bracelet suit me more. I'm about to buy this when I sell my grandmother's house to have a token of her after I won't have the house anymore, so I prefer to have something that I can manage by myself as well, no need for the husband I don't have to help me put it on and take it off, lol (beautiful stack BTW, and I'm kind of curious to see your traditional bracelet too!)

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Aww that would be a great way to keep your grandmother close. And I love the meaning behind this bracelet for that reason! As for the traditional bracelet, I show it in my jewelry collection video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/an_YhoZml9R2f68

[@CheHk-zh5lu]

Nice review❤️ I wonder what’s the weight of your Cartier LOve bracelet ? Thanks!

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Sorry I don’t know the exact weight of it. It’s substantial though without being heavy.

[@catherinele1580]

I would love to invest in cartier bracelets but getting scratches on them will bother me too much. This is a great review as i too have baby tiny wrist

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Yeah the scratches are unavoidable unfortunately. It really bothered me at first but after I got the first major scratch the rest didn’t really matter.

[@katemiller7874]

You know I thought it would bother me too but I really don’t notice the scratches.

[@StyleDomination]

You can also have the scratches polished out. And these bracelets come in different sizes. I’m sure you can find one you “love”!!

[@missluohua]

such a lovely review! gorgeous Bracelet. Did you ever experience the screw popping open by itself ? or it being twisted by itself? thank you ^_^

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I’ve never had that issue with mine. I just lock it once when I put it on and it stays in place until I want to take the bracelet off.

[@cwu9447]

These 2 bracelets look amazing on you! Is 16cm the outside or inside circumference of your Love bracelet?? Thanks.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I’m not quite sure unfortunately. If it helps, my wrist circumference is 14.5 cm and Cartier recommends going a size up from your wrist size for the Love bracelet.

[@cwu9447]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC If it's not too much trouble, could you please measure the outside circumference of your Love bracelet? Thank you so much!

[@raduna2106]

If you could only have one - small JUC or small Love? Thanks 🙏🏻

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Small JUC 😊

[@tyler116]

has the white gold changed colors at all?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I haven’t noticed anything with mine.

[@justasimplegal]

Great review!!! I wanted to ask, when you lock your bracelet, do you see it being completely tightened? Does it make any sound when you hold it each halves with your finger and squeeze in the bracelet and hear some sound? When I lock mine, I still hear some loosening sound like the bracelet isn’t completely locked tight. I did try to see if bracelet opens if I try to pull harder, it stayed locked which is good but that loose sound bothers me and wondering if yours does the same and it’s normal or it’s just that I happened to get defected one. I ordered it online coz I have no boutique nearby☹️ Please let me know. TIA~~

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I have the small version so the locking mechanism is different to yours. From what you’re saying it doesn’t sound quite right. Maybe try to arrange an exchange?

[@justasimplegal]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC Thank you for your reply~ Mine is small as well…I just got it but I am not sure even after locking the bracelet, when you squeeze it pressing both halves…it kinda make sound..like it’s somewhat loose, you know what I mean.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Oh okay I misunderstood reading your comment the first time. Mine doesn’t make any noises after I lock it. I suspect something on your bracelet might not be perfectly aligned.

[@virginialinares470]

@laxmigurung I have the same problem with my small one where it’s locked but still has a slight sound or movement. We’re you able to exchange yours? Thank you in advance

[@justasimplegal]

@@virginialinares470 hi there! I spoke to my SA, and she mentioned possibly in the long run it can be a concern but totally normal for that type of closure and that’s why that noise happens. As long as it stays locked you are fine no need to worry. I checked with my other girlfriends too, it does make sound for them as well. You can consult with your SA too and see what can they do abt it if you feel unsure. I didn’t bother to exchange since it is still very secure for me and if at any point, it gives issues, I’d expect Cartier to assist. Hope this info helps~ Good luck!!

[@ecodreamon]

so pretty pice! I like both of love sm and Juc sm. if you can get only one, which one would you prefer to buy??

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I would get the small JUC because it’s more unique 😊

[@ecodreamon]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC thank you for your answer! It is helpful! since you upload the review video, how is your opinion if you lost JUC would you buy again? And the JUC spring become loosen up over time?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I would buy it again but in the version with the diamonds which unfortunately wasn’t released yet when I got mine. I’m not sure what you mean by spring. There’s no spring in the bracelet.

[@ecodreamon]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHICHi Carol. Thanks it is helpful. I have one more question~ JUC got caught a lot when you wear it? and do you think it is ok with daily bracelet even wash and sleeping? I heard the JUC inside there is spring to open widely.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I’m still not sure what you mean by a spring. The inside of the small JUC is hollow which is why you can just twist it onto your wrist. I haven’t had it catch onto my clothes and it was comfortable to wear 24/7 when I used to wear it all the time.

[@Joy77Joy]

Those bracelets look so good on you. May I ask what size of your wrist?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Thanks!!! I don’t know the size of my wrist but I have the Love bracelet in 16 cm and the Juste Un Clou in 15 cm.

[@MaritsaDarman]

great inlaws

[@LLLLLLL156]

With what u clean them up ?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I use an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner. You can purchase it here: bit.ly/32uQyKV I put it in the jewelry cleaner with a few drops of soap and let it run for a few minutes and then rinse it under water at the end.

[@nataliav185]

They give you a cleaning set in Cartier for free you just have to ask for it

[@Diamondbeach]

It’s not obvious because the JUC is rounded.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Good point! Thanks for sharing it 😄

[@alc7778]

Does anyone here hear a clicking sounds on their small bracelet? Like the screws are not tight enough?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Does that happen when you pinch the two sides together? If so I think others have mentioned that it’s normal.

[@alc7778]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC Thank you for replying. Does ur small love bracelet do that?

[@ndifrekeuwem5651]

Do men wear these bracelets?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

They definitely can. I would say the regular sized one is probably better suited for men because it’s a bit thicker in width.

[@nuah355]

Yeah! I Agree with Carol, I have the Juste un Clou and Love in the regular size, it makes more sense for men to wear the regular sized ones because they generally have wider wrists.
