Halos add bulk to your ring and ultimately make it look much bigger without increasing the price the way a larger diamond would. With the option of a double or triple halo, this style will inevitably look and feel like a rock on your finger. It's also important to consider the option of a hidden halo. This is where the halo sits below the center stone but has a smaller diameter, making it hidden when looking at the diamond straight on.
Hidden halos are a beautiful addition to any ring, but the setting requires the main diamond to sit higher on your finger. This can lead to snagging your ring on clothes, couches, or various things amid your daily activities. It also makes any physical activity with your hands quite impractical. If you are someone who enjoys lifting weights at the gym or being super active outdoors, there's a good chance a halo-style ring will feel like more work than it's worth.
With all the tiny diamonds that are included in a halo setting, it's inevitable that some will fall out with normal wear and tear, leaving you with frequent trips back to your jeweler for maintenance requests. On top of that, more diamonds usually means more trapped dirt. So, learning how to safely clean your engagement ring at home will likely be a must.
