Traditionally worn under clothes by African women, the wearing of waist beads varies widely according to tribal custom. This tradition dates back to Ancient Kemet, subsequently spreading throughout Western Africa.
The ceremonial use of colors, quality of materials, and amulets were particular to a woman's status and her own personal preference, and she was gifted with them during rites of passage ceremonies. She wore them upon her birth, received new ones during puberty, and received them as a gift at marriage. She also wore them for spiritual protection, to monitor her weight, and was buried with them upon her transition.

I got my first WaistBeads during a time when I was struggling emotionally and physically. The WaistBeads are a perfect guide for my healing journey. As soon as I open the package I feel instantly connected to the WaistBeads. I immediately feel the love and gentle care that has gone into creating them. They are also sent in beautiful bags and I really appreciate the thoughtful handwritten card that comes with the beads. It is very meaningful and beautiful. N’Tirzah is kind, sweet, intuitive and easy to talk with. I enjoy the consultation and N’Tirzah is very thorough and always follows up the consult with notes through an email. This helped me a lot because I have a hard time remembering things during this time. I have three WaistBeads that have been created by N’Tirzah, and each have been with me providing different healing properties on this journey of mine. There is something so sacred about wearing the beads that l love and I will always honour their guidance and powers. ~Ms. HC~
I received my beautiful WombMan WaistBeads yesterday! They feel so good on my body and I love the color combinations! I was so excited about the beads that I put them on after my water work out. With my steam, sauna and shower routine, they added to my calm. They're very comfortable, but I don't feel my beads. They are a part of me.

THANK YOU MUCH!
I received the beads.
I LOVE THEM!
Thank you for being so thoughtful with the crafting and delivery. I am wearing them (WaistBeads and WristBeads) right now.
Mr. C.S.
I have been wearing WombMan WaistBeads and WristBeads for several years now. I have the pleasure of owning two pairs of WaistBeads and a pair of WristBeads. Initially, I wore the beads as a cultural expression of adornment. However, they have become so much more. When I wear the WaistBeads underneath my clothes, that's my little secret; and I exude an extra boost of confidence in my stride as I walk. The beads are a sublime message to me that I am a woman; a woman who is sensual, flirtatious, proud and striving for a healthy life. ~Queen D.M.~
When you meet us for your consultation, please be assured that we will create your beaded jewelry as agreed to meet your specifications and expectations with excellence and love.
Personal Reading/Consultation
A personal reading/consultation is strongly suggested. You will be wearing your WombMan WaistBeads/WristBeads that are crafted with meditation, prayer and with the highest quality gems according to the assessment made at that time. This is a sacred process for both yourself and the creator of your beads: the most optimal outcome is of utmost importance.
A personal reading or consultation utilizes Empathic & Spiritual connections, and is not meant to replace any medical, psychological, legal or other professional services or advisement. Moreover, the wearing of your beads is only supplemental to medical protocols, psychological treatments, health regimens and legal or other professional services or advisement.
Your personal reading/consultation fee is due prior to the appointment being made. We will send you an invoice via Square prior to meeting with you.
Once the invoice has been paid, the consultation will be scheduled. Your consultation can be in person, via FaceTime, Phone, or Zoom. The consultation fee is non-refundable and separately invoiced from your bead invoice.
Custom Orders
All orders are custom; lovingly crafted according to the highest standards and to meet your specifications as outlined during your personal reading/consultation as previously specified. Your order will also include your very own personal affirmation!
Order Fulfillment
Directly after your consultation, you will be quoted a price based upon the gems that were chosen. After the consultation, we will invoice you separately for your custom beads. Once we have received your payment in full, we will begin crafting your jewelry. We require a minimum of two weeks from the receipt of your payment to the date your beads will be delivered. Shipping is free for orders being delivered in the continental United States, and will arrive via USPS. Orders that are not fully paid within 48 hours will be cancelled and deposits towards that order (excluding your consultation/reading fee) will be refunded.
Product Care
WombMan WaistBeads and WombMan WristBeads are crafted from the best quality beads and earth gems, and it is very important that you treat your beads as you would any piece of fine jewelry. Bathing, Swimming, Slumbering or Strenuous activity is not advised while wearing your beads. Lotions, oils and perfumes can also dim the brilliance of your beads, so it is strongly recommended that you avoid applying these emollients on the body after putting on your jewelry.
*Disclaimer*
The counseling and healing services offered are supplemental to legal, psychiatric, or medical advice. We strongly encourage you to consult legal or medical professionals to assist you as necessary.
Refunds
