As far back as time, women have found it difficult accepting themselves and their bodies. It’s discomforting enough that the media tells you how to be, what to be and how to look. Lots of women grow to resent their bodies especially after child birth. Body shaming has suddenly become a thing.

In trying to learn and love womanhood in its entirety, accessorizing has enhanced the celebration of the woman's body. One of such accessories is the waist beads.

The practice of wearing waist beads goes as far back as the Egyptians hieroglyphs; women wore them for various reasons, from accepting and embracing their sexuality, seducing a significant other, to wearing it just for the very practical use of weight control.

Africa - filled with indigenous beauty, culture, and uniqueness, - celebrates adornment of waist beads by women here and overseas. Beads can be worn at all times, whilst bathing, or sleeping and can be a symbol of sensuality, and rites of passage.

Beads are believed to grace the hips, making them a lot curvier. Waist beads worn from birth are believed to shape the girl child's waist but if a grown woman decides to adorn her body with beads, so much the better. There is a waist bead length for every woman. Whichever ways you choose to wear yours, they are truly beautiful.

Beads represent culture and heritage and women who indulge in this unique practice are said to be daring.

They are made with various materials from corals, rhinestones to rocks and other organic materials.
