The History Of Waist Beads dates back to 15th-century antiquity. Many believe that the history of waist beads begins in ancient Egypt where they were called "girdles" and were worn by women as a status symbol.
In West Africa, the tradition was made popular by the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria.
They are worn as a celebration of womanhood, sexuality, femininity, fertility, healing,
spirituality, body shaping, protection, and wealth.
