Reasons for discoloration

One of the main reasons why many friends buy bodhi bracelets is that they change color, and many friends are curious about the reasons why bodhi bracelets change color. Today, I will explain here. The main reasons are divided into the following two points:

 

first, oxidation causes color change, which is also why newly processed bodhi roots need to be sealed and packaged in vacuum bags to isolate air and prevent oxidation. Long term exposure to air will cause color change.

 

Secondly, it is due to the inherent oiliness of Bodhi, which is very important for the roots of Bodhi. This determines the feel and color changes when playing with Bodhi bracelets. Over time, as you continue to play with the bracelet, Bodhi's own oil will overflow and form a film on the surface. Therefore, the surface of a Bodhi bracelet that has been played with for a period of time looks very smooth, and the color will change.

 

The above are two main reasons for discoloration, as well as some other factors, such as the pH of sweat on the surface of your skin, the storage time of Bodhi beads, and so on
