My first waist beads were given to me at birth as a gift of celebration of the birth of a female, protection, fertility from my grandmothers, as Ghanaian/African culture dictates. The miraculous transformation our bodies go through from puberty, pregnancy and birth? & menopause is reason why in ancient cultures, a strong awareness, appreciation of the womb area & the waist is important for women of all ages.

Traditionally, African waist beads are worn as private intimate adornments fitted low just above the hips but can be worn on the waist or as body jewelry. There is no wrong way to wear waist beads.

Our bodies go through so much as part of our duties to mother nature. And as such deserve to be celebrated regardless of culture, age or size. Whether you celebrate it personally or collectively, we join you to love the skin you are in.

All beads are sourced from Ghana.
