Dreadlock beads are definitely the most popular embellishment for dreadlocks.
But are they just for looking pretty or do they have actual benefits?
Well, we believe both.
As far as aesthetics goes, there is an infinite array of beads to choose from.
Different material, shape, size, colour and theme.
You can say that they are worn as jewellery.
However, there is also technical advantages for having beads.
For one, they help tame loops and bumps.
And round out flat spots.
Beads also help hold the dread together.
If you have a weak area, just fold it on itself and insert the bead to keep it in place.
Eventually your weak area will dread back on its own.
Same way beads can aid in sensitive edges.
If your folded edges are getting loose, fold the loose hair inside a preferably long bead.
The edges will fix themselves in no time.
When placing dreadlocks in your hair you might want put them from the neck down.
Otherwise it will be uncomfortable to sleep with the beads pressing on your skull.
Or remove them during the night.
