RECOMMENDATIONS:

After wearing your mala, the tassel can sometimes be less smooth. It is very simple to correct with a tiny bit of water and a hairbrush or comb. Lightly wet the tassel and brush it. It will dry naturally. If you are pulling a few thread, you can simply cut them so that all of the threads are at the same length. And here you are with a brand new tassel :)!
