FAQ
-
Are these permanent tie on waistbeads? Do you offer removable strands?All waistbeads are permanent tie-on. To remove them, you will need to cut the strand. At this time, Haylo by Renae Waistbeads and More does not offer removable waistbeads.
-
Do I have to give my measurements before ordering? And can I just give my pants size?Please provide your waist measurement in inches to ensure your strand fits comfortably. Do not provide your pants size, as the measurement must be in inches. Important: Double or triple-check your measurements for accuracy. All waistbeads are made based on the measurements you provide. Haylo by Renae Waistbeads and More is not responsible for waistbeads that do not fit properly due to incorrect measurements. If you're unsure how to measure your waist, feel free to reach out for assistance. You can contact me through the "Let's Chat" tab, by email at HaylobyRenae@gmail.com, or on any of my social media platforms.
-
Can I wear my waistbeads in the shower?You can wear your waistbeads while bathing, swimming, working out, and during other normal activities. After water activities or bathing, please make sure to gently wipe your waistbeads with a clean, dry towel. Waistbeads can be cleaned with a mild, gentle soap. Please be mindful not to tug on your strands before using the restroom to avoid possible breakage.
-
Where should I wear/ tie on my waistbead on my body?Ultimately, the choice is yours, but I recommend tying your waistbeads at your waistline, high hip, or on the hip. Choose the position that makes you feel most comfortable! Remember, this is your journee and you’re free to make it your own!
-
Will the color on the beads fade?Haylo by Renae Waistbeads and More strives to select the highest quality beads for all our creations. However, due to factors like daily activities, lotions, perfumes, body chemistry, and more, some fading may occur over time. We take extra care to avoid beads that are known to fade quickly, ensuring the longevity of the bead coatings. Please be aware that colors like pink and purple may fade faster than other colors. However, we carefully handpick the highest quality beads to ensure the best possible longevity.
-
Can I lose weight while wearing waistbeads?Waistbeads can be a helpful tool for weight loss and weight control. For many years, women have used waistbeads to track their progress. However, they are not magical strands that will cause instant weight loss. Just like any other goal, you'll need to hold yourself accountable and put in the effort. For example, if you overeat while wearing your waistbeads, the strand may become tighter and rise higher on your waist, signaling that you’re becoming full. On the flip side, as you lose weight, you may notice the waistbeads dropping lower than where you originally tied them. Think of your waistbeads as your personal accountability coach – they help keep you mindful of your progress!

What are waistbeads for and why do people wear them?Waistbeads date back to ancient Egypt and were popularized in West Africa by the Yoruban Tribe of Nigeria and the women of Ghana. They were worn for various cultural, personal, and lifestyle reasons. In some cultures, waistbeads symbolize royalty and social standing, with women of royalty wearing more expensive and rare beads to distinguish themselves. In Ghana, waistbeads are believed to help shape the waist, with multiple strands worn over time to keep the waist small and accentuate the hips. Waistbeads can be worn for a variety of reasons, including posture, beauty, weight tracking, spiritual protection, adornment, wealth, healing, growth journeys, femininity, spirituality, and as fashion statement pieces. When people ask, “Why do people wear waistbeads?” I always follow up with, “Why do you want to wear waistbeads?” For me, wearing waistbeads is a personal experience and journey. I’ve had clients say that their waistbeads make them feel more confident and feminine. Personally, I wear waistbeads as part of my own healing and self-discovery journey, and I must admit, they make me feel beautiful. WOMEN OF ALL SHAPES AND SIZES CAN WEAR HAYLO BY RENAE WAISTBEADS. Remember, this is your personal journey, and no one can tell you how to experience it.
