Bonda women wear large and thick brass or aluminium circular and countless colourful beads looped around their head and neck.
The Bonda women wear tiny skirts called 'ringa', which they themselves weave at the family loom. Beads cover their naked breasts. Being very fond of ornaments they cover their nudity to a great extent through ornamental devices. The tribe is one of the oldest and most primitive in mainland India with their culture little changed in over a thousand years. Their isolation and known aggression continue to preserve their culture despite the pressures of an expanding Indian population. In contrast with many other populations in India, the number of females among the Bondas greatly exceeds the number of males.
The best way to view members of the tribe is by going to one of the local town markets. It is not considered safe to venture into their tribal areas. Bondas still use 'binnimoy protha', i.e. give-and-take policies. Every Sunday they use to go in a market.
They like to put castor oil in their head. Women make worli painting in their house.
