Hollow flower-cut bead tubes sized for Senegalese twists and mid-size braids. The cut-out pattern is the point — it catches light along the length of a braid instead of sitting as a solid block of metal, so a few beads read as detail rather than as weight.
Beads sit best spaced along a braid rather than clustered at the end, where the weight starts to pull. Slide them on while the braid is still slightly loose, then tighten below the bead to hold it in position, or secure it with a small band underneath.
Iron beads are heavier than aluminium, so keep the count moderate on finer braids. Take them out before washing — water trapped inside a hollow tube is what causes both rust on the bead and a mildew smell in the hair.
