How to Measure Your Waist for the Perfect Waist Bead Size
Buying waist beads is easier when you know your exact measurement. Do not rely on your trouser size. Measure the part of your body where you want the beads to sit. Use a flexible tailor’s tape on bare skin. Stand naturally, wrap the tape around your chosen position, and keep it level. It should feel comfortable, not tight enough to press into your skin or loose enough to leave a gap. You can wear waist beads at your natural waist, near your belly button, lower abdomen, or upper hips. Measure at the exact spot you prefer, then give the measurement in inches to the seller. For the most accurate fit, measure without bulky clothing. Light clothing may work, but bare-skin measurement is best.
