Stringing heishi beads

I am having trouble finding the proper stringing material for small hesihi beads. They are 2-3mm in size. Although small, the hole is not. The problem is the lack of weight of heishi and therefore when strung, does not drape properly. It usually coils somewhat. Any suggestions?

For necklaces I use Soft Flex beading wire 21 strands, stainless steel, nylon coated it is fine with an .014inch diameter it is very flexible. For light weight necklaces I use Soft Touch by Soft Flex that is very fine with 7 wires of micro stainless steel, nylon coated diameter .010

are Beadalon wires but a tendency to kink slightly. Tiger tail does kink worse and I would not use it. HTH Shirley
