Is there a way to stretch out a finished normal bracelet that is a little bit uneven? Google says to soak it in lukewarm water but I just want to make sure that’s correct.

I think you might be able to wet-block bracelets like Google (AI, I assume) suggests, but I don't think it will be as successful as doing it with other fabrics.

That or putting it under a heavy book, but you won't be able to completely fix it either way

do you know what kind of material your thread is, if it’s cotton which most embroidery floss is, you should be able to block it as you would any kind of knit. I use an mold hopscotch mat and T-pins when I block larger projects. Warm water works but steaming might be better if that is a thing you have access to. It certainly won’t be perfect but it may be your best bet at stretching it.
