@the_drip_fairy: Waist beads work in so many ways and not just physically but also psychologically. Physically - they are very pretty to look at and they also are placed on the body in a way that is physically pleasing to the eye. Sometimes creating the illusion of a smaller waist. Psychologically - when you wear the permanent style, you become more in tuned with your body fluctuations, and that helps you step away from certain ideologies. The second portion is the fact that you constantly looking at the waist beads in your midsection and constantly saying positive things about the waist beads slowly transforms into you, thinking positively about that region and positively about your body. Waist beads although small are very mighty! For some people it is a new concept but there is a reason why this has been an extremely popular piece of jewelry for over 1000 years, no exaggeration. Waist beads were created in Africa and they have not slowed down in production since. Even in my home country of Ivory Coast, you could go there at nine in the morning and there are women still buying Waist bead’s today. #permanent #jewelry #bodypositivity
