I used to like the thing but because of this diabolical version I've gotten hooked with the strong stereotyping that all waist bead wearers are someTHING to be avoided

wel,waist beads used to be a vital part of women's getup among yoruba ppl in the olden days,,,(at least i am sure of Ekiti),it is called "bebe",it is believed to help shape d waist,hence they put on gals when they are still babies.but just like tatoos(which u will find on most ekiti women 50,55yrs and above),waist beads are kinda outta fashion, and both are now seen as waywardness.But as for me, i wear waist beads, my mum bought 4 me actually.and as for tatoo, i'm gonna have my husband's name written on my waist,,,some days to our wedding,,will show him on our wedding night! wink

YO, am not from nairaland and all but we wear them as tradition.
For married women, depending on the colour, red-to let them husbands know, they are unavailable and what ever colour that the are, and apparently to also shape the butt and also just for fashion among the girls grin

Facts i found about waist bead...Dont mind the scattered lines as i found them from different webpages and brought them up here.

love for their girl child through gifts of waist beads that are colourful and expensive.

The lagidigba or palm nut shell beads is used for fecundity purposes. The nuts signify multiple births as they are in clusters, thus one can infer the high incidence of multiple births in Yoruba land to the usage of the lagidigba bead

Brides seduce their spouses with the beads they adorn, some women are said to lace their beads with charm to make them irresistible to the male folks. The Yoruba’s can easily comment on a women’s moral standing in those days by interpretation of the movement of the waist bead adorned by a women. The way she moves her buttocks can depict her morals either seductive or reserve.

The Yorubas have a popular saying that “it is the beads that makes the buttocks to shake”.

Other users of the waist beads in Yoruba land are the Orisas or devotes of water deities and other priestesses, they adorn the waist beads for protection against spiritual attacks as well as part of their dress regalia.

The waist bead is also used to adorn the Ere-Ibeji figurine on the death of a twin, there is the belief that when treated well the spirit of the spirit of the dead twin will not harm the living twin and will return to the family to stay.

Waist beads are also adorned and laced with charms to ward away the Abiku spirit (mermaid Spirit) from a woman.

Because of the regard on the waist beads, some Intimate songs have been composed and sang by the Yorubas based on its usages.



Apart from the Yorubas, other groups in Nigeria also have similar usages of the waist beads in their culture the Ogonis in Rivers State refer to beads as Loo, its uses range from covering the private parts of a women to adornment as a sign of affluence. The beads is a measure of value to the Ogonis and are also worn by bride as part of her bridal rites. The Igbos called it Mgbaji, also for adornment and a sign of social status.

The Hausas refer to it as Jigida. To the Kalabaris, the waist bead has the potency of transforming an ugly woman into a beautiful maiden once it is worn. The Ibibios see it as Nkwa-Isin, they adorn it on a female baby to help give her a good waist line, as she grows, beads of her size are adorned on her.

Priestesses of deities also wear the beads that are always colourful as part of their regalia. They also use the waist beads laced with charm s for birth control. The maiden dances (Aban) also wear the beads doing dance to give a graceful hip movement when they dance.

Waist bead in today’s fashion is relegated, ladies have a preference for western costumes such as belts, chains, g-strings to the waist beads. The culture of waist bead is going down rapidly to extinction. Religion and other spiritual reasons have been adduced for the neglect, however it must be pointed out that waist bead usage as practiced in the past is an essential element of African body adornment that is harmless and meaningful a pride and precious item which should be encourage to day.

If you are suffering from skin issues such as cellulite, varicose veins, stretchmarks, Acne, and other skin ailments due to the used of bad products E.G Bleaching cream and wrong cream mixing then this information is for you. by now you must be regretting ever using those products because all they have done is made your skin worse instead of better. Well there is a solution and i hope this information helps one or two people on this platform.
My cousin had a very bad experience with a product someone promised heaven and earth was gonna make her look very gorgeous and flawless and white like an oyibo.... and she paid #75,000 for the total package. Yes she got veryyyyy yellow like oyibo and on the 4th month, she started noticing terrible reactions, white spots, stretch marks, pimples on her back, red varicose veins, her face started to peel and shrink, in fact the list of skin issues she encountered was endless and she couldn't even wear normal clothes, she was always covered, my cousin became an eleha.... So someone at work mentioned her neighbor who is a specialist in damaged skins, she said the lady helped her sis in-law recover from terrible skin damage due to bleaching.
We consulted her and she gave my cousin 3/4 months of healing, i wasn't convinced at first cos she didn't talk much, she just looked at pictures of my cousin's skin and started the repair journey with her... Everything she recommended was worth the price, not even up to the money the other woman to whiten her skin. its 5months now and my cousin is back to her normal healthy complexion. i must confess that she looks so good now, her skin is radiantly beautiful with a very awesome glow. Now me sef i have bought somethings from her (Pls i didn't bleach or have a damaged skin) and its just 2weeks she started me on the products, i can say for sure that her products are wonderful and she is such an awesome and humble person. Yes! i promised her i will do this on nairaland cos she surprised me and she laughed when i said i will do this, am sure she didn't believe me when i said it.
Follow her on Instagram - @poshlala87 / PIN -7C451E1D . I would have given her number out, but she frowned at it. So tell her from (Tammy) GOOD LUCK!!!
