While they are strong, if you pull down your panties really fast and quick without being mindful of your beads, there is a great chance that you can pop the strand.

You should place your waist beads where you feel the most comfortable. If you’re wearing waist beads for weight loss you should place your waist bead strands above your navel. You can track your weight loss by watching for when the beads begin to fall below your navel.
If you’re wearing waist beads for weight gain you should tie your beads in a spot that is most comfortable for you. You can track your weight gain by watching how your waist beads become more snug and begin to rollup higher on your body.
If you’re wearing waist beads for fashion or any other intention not related to weight change, place your waist beads wherever you feel most comfortable. Some women like to tie some waist bead strands lower on the hips so that they hang closer to their intimate parts. If you like to wear some of your waist beads lower, be mindful not to place them too loose. If you are able to step out of your waist beads, then this is an indicator that your waist beads are too big.

Tie-on waist beads can be adjusted if they are too big once you tie them on. Once tied, if they are too tight, or uncomfortable due to snugness, then there is no way to adjust a tie on waist bead. If you lose weight and your waist beads are loose enough for you to step out of them they may be able to be adjusted by cutting and retying.
How Many Waist Beads Can I Wear?

Wearing 3 or more strands to start out, helps you to be mindful of not breaking them, because the more that you have on, the more you’ll feel them in the beginning. Many women that have been wearing waist beads for many years like to wear multiple strands. The choice is uniquely yours.
