    how to prevent "V" shape when wearing strands

    Thanks so much for the helpful info! I usually wear 18" or 20" while I wear a "U" shaped blouse. The pearls tend to lay directly on my skin. Im checking out pearl enhancers right now, although if you have any other general tips on maintaining the U shape directly on the skin, I'd be very grateful!

    how to prevent "V" shape when wearing strands

    Hi! Quick question. I notice that when I wear strands that are longer than 16" they tend to form a slight V at the bottom rather than staying a nice curved/rounded shape. Any suggestions on how to prevent this? (Other than constantly adjusting it) Thank you!

    Do these look like authentic Hanadamas?

    Hi everyone! Thank you so much for your responses. I actually just ended up returning them, although I wish I took a picture of the certificates before I did to share on here. I purchased them from someone on Ebay (at about half the price of what big vendors sell them for) and I just had an...

    Do these look like authentic Hanadamas?

    Thank you so much for your help! They did come with a certificate from PSL. However, I've heard horror stories of jewelers supplying a certificate/report that says one thing but providing jewelry that doesn't match the quality listed in the certificate. So I guess I was just curious to see if...

    Do these look like authentic Hanadamas?

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if people could lend their expertise and experience in helping me determining whether these are authentic Hanadama pearls? I'm a bit new to pearls (and new this forum) and I'm just a little concerned because these look so perfect, they almost look fake. Could they...
