Tips

Ask for your base style (e.g., box braids) and specify you want a "leave-out section at the front to create a beaded fringe." Alternatively, ask if they can create a detachable beaded fringe you can clip in.

Question & Answer

Are beaded fringes heavy on your edges?

Yes, they can be extremely heavy. It is critical to use lightweight beads (e.g., plastic or wood, not glass) and to ensure the fringe is attached securely without putting direct, constant pulling strain on your hairline. This is not a long-term style.
