2. What are the differences between soft beads and hard beads?
Hard beads (C and S series) are extremely durable yet not brittle, maintaining their strength over time.
Soft beads (A and R series), on the other hand, are pliable, flexible, and elastic. When bent, they quickly return to their original shape once released.
While many prefer the durability of hard beads, soft beads are ideal for crafting special projects like bracelets due to their flexibility and elasticity.
