Adding Hair Beads to Your Braids
After washing, conditioning, moisturizing and styling your hair into braids, kinks or braids, you can add beads. Read on to see the different bead installation methods and find the one that works for you.
How to Put Beads on Braids with a Beader
With the bead method, you can use the bead tool to add beads to the braid. These tools usually come with hair beads, but if you don’t have one, you can easily find them online.
Below we explain how to add beads with beads.
- Add multiple marbles to the marble tool. The first marble you add to the tool will become the bottom marble when it touches your head. Slide it all the way down the bead mouth.
- Pass the braid through the hole in the bead tool.
*Tip: When pulling the hair with the tool, fold the ends of the hair. This makes this step faster and easier.
Push the bead up through the opening of the bead, and then pull the bead down. The beads should now be on the headband.
Slide the bottom bead down to the end of the braid, and then fold the top of the braid up around the two sides of the bead. Secure the end by wrapping a rubber band around the hair a few times, and secure the folded end above the bottom bead. Continue to wrap until the beads are firmly seated.
Slide the remaining beads into place.
*Tip: If you don’t have a bead tool, you can use the latch hook in the same way. The only problem is that the latch hook is too large to be used with the smaller beads (that is, the hook part of the tool). However, if the beads are large, there is no problem.

How To Secure Beads Without a Rubber Band
Using small rubber bands to fix the beads on the hair is arguably the easiest and safest method, but some people find that these rubber bands can damage the hair. If you are looking for an alternative, you can also use a jewelry foldable connector like this one. These connectors are usually used in jewelry making.
To use this tool, wrap the end around the connector several times, fold down to secure the end in place, and then slide the bead down onto the connector. Make sure the holes in the beads are not too big. Otherwise the connector will go straight through and the beads will fall from your hair.
This is a video demonstration for fixing beads using the retractable connector of the lifting ring.

Use beads to keep your hair styling
There is no need to remove beads or hair accessories from your hair when you sleep. You can sleep with a silk scarf or hat over your head as usual, and tuck beads or headdresses on your head.

Be sure to remove beads or other hair accessories before washing your hair. The only exception is smell. This is because there is no need to remove the loc attachment.
Pros and cons of adding beads to the headband
If you are not sure whether to add beads to your hairstyle, please check this list of pros and cons. It will help you make a decision.
Benefit:
- Adding beads to your hairstyle is a great way to add accessories to your look and express your style and personality.
- Just add a few beads to your hairstyle, for example around your face, and you can add and remove them quickly and easily.
- When properly secured, the beads will not move or fall from your hair until you remove them.
harm: - Adding a lot of beads to the braid adds another tedious step to the already long hair styling process. It may be too much to complete in one day.
- If you are not careful when choosing beads, some beads (such as wooden beads that cannot be sealed properly and have debris inside) may be bad for hair health.
- If you want to wear beads on a child’s head, it is important to consider the risk of the beads falling when they are not paying attention. The beads may be swallowed, suffocated or put in the nose. We recommend that you double check whether the beads are safe, or wait until they are old enough to be no longer dangerous.
- Unfortunately, this is common among young African American girls, because many black girls have beaded hairstyles. This problem is also common in daycare centers.
- Before adding beads to your hair, take a look at this do’s and don’ts list to make sure your hairstyle looks beautiful.
Do:
- Be careful not to move or drop marbles.
- Be sure to hide the rubber band under the beads to get a smooth appearance.
- Try to use colorful beads or materials to make unique shapes. You can find hair bead styling kits at various retailers.
- Try different methods of adding beads to find the easiest way.
Do not do:
- Not in a hurry. Styling too quickly will entangle your braids with the beading tools, causing unnecessary frizz and hair damage. Some people use tin foil (aluminum foil) instead of buying bead tools and buttons. If you can afford it, I recommend buying the right tools to complete this hairstyle. DIY tools like aluminum foil can easily damage your hair or scratch your hair and scalp.
- Do not add large beads to a small part of your hair. This will increase the tension of the hair and scalp.
