How to Measure for Waistbeads

Measuring for waistbeads is a simple process that ensures a perfect fit. Follow these steps to get your measurements accurately.

What You'll Need:

• A soft measuring tape (or a piece of string and a ruler)
• A mirror (optional)
• A notebook to record your measurements

Step 1: Find Your Waist Measurement

1. Locate Your Natural Waist:
• Stand up straight and bend to one side. The crease that forms is your natural waistline, typically located above your belly button and below your ribcage.
• Photo Suggestion: Include an image showing where the natural waist is located, with a person bending slightly to identify the crease.
2. Measure Your Waist:

• Wrap the measuring tape around your waist, ensuring it sits flat against your skin without twisting. The tape should be snug but not tight.

• Take note of the measurement in inches or centimeters at the point where the tape overlaps.

Step 2: Consider Fit Preferences

• Comfort Fit: If you prefer a looser fit, add 1-2 inches to your measurement.
• Snug Fit: For a tighter fit, use your exact waist measurement.
• Layering: If you plan to wear the waistbeads over clothing, consider measuring over the fabric.

Step 3: Additional Measurements (Optional)

• Hips Measurement: If you want your waistbeads to sit lower on your hips, measure around the fullest part of your hips and thighs..

Final Tips:

• Measure yourself in front of a mirror for accuracy.
• If possible, have someone assist you for the best results.
• Double-check your measurements to ensure accuracy.
