Hi …does anyone can help me how to get ritual bracelt for protection …
I just bought my first waist beads yesterday and I feel so beautiful
Can I wear them if I have a belly and also where is this store
How much are the beads?
They said a whole bunch of nothing, is it because if they say the real meaning a lot of women won’t qualify to wear them? 🤷🏾♂️ just asking
Love it live as african is spectacular

West African beads are meant to hidden for your intimate partner to see . Black Americans and other black from the diaspora are now wearing too without really knowing the true meaning behind its premise and how it should be properly worn . My mother would tell me back in Ghana whenever she would see women expose their beads they were perceived as promiscuous. Understanding other culture is very important. As a ghanian canadian I would never jump the broom at my wedding bc that is a tradition sacred to black Americans .

From the little i know, one of many reasons behind waist beads is that it is worn for fertility or contraception

I'm half black, can I wear waist beads?
i have a question, can any africans where the beads? i’m black by the way x
On Kenyan culture we wear them for shape and if married you husband enjoy playing with them.
These are neat but I want some more depth…..details….details.
Very private female thing and could be laced with many other highly secret things true African women would never disclose. Maybe between their closest female relatives.
In my country waist beads are misinterpreted, people think is witch craft or someone is a prostitute 😏😏
I use my waist beads to check if am gaining or losing weight. I love them.
So what's the meaning??
I was told it enhances your shape. I never remove mine and have worn them underneath my clothes. With the exception of a bathing suit at the beach, it’s out of sight except for my man.
They aren't for the world to see nor is the reason for everyone's ears.
"the African culture" Which country exactly?
If this thing wasn't used for beauty and protection in your African culture then am sincerely confused…
