As per Shastra’s :

सर्वेषामपि वक्त्रणां धारणे यो समो भवेत् तस्मात्सर्व प्रयत्नेन रुद्राक्ष पुत्र धारय - पद्मपुराणे

"One who wears all mukhi Rudraksha becomes equal to me (Shiva). So dear Son, one should try by all means to wear all mukhi Rudraksha." -Padma Puran

भक्तिश्रद्धायुतश्चैव सर्वकामार्थसिद्धये । रुद्राक्षान्धारयेन्मन्त्रैर्देवनालस्य वर्जितः ॥

- श्रीशिवमहापुराणम्

"When all the Rudraksha are worn after being energized through their seed mantras and chanted withdevotion and faith, the wearer is blessed with fulfillment of all wishes, desires and riches. Without any hesitation, one must wear Rudraksha beads till 14 mukhi energized with their individual seed Mantras." -Shiv Puran

अधोवाच ये देवा दिविषदस्तेभ्यो नमो भगवन्तो अनुमदन्तु शोभायै पितरो अनुमदन्तु शोभायै ज्ञानमयी अथोवाच ये मंत्रा या विद्यास्तेभ्यो नतस्ताभ्यश्चनमस्तच्छक्तिरस्याः प्रतिष्ठापयति - अक्षमालिकोपनिषद्

"All Gods and Goddesses reside in this mala. All should worship this mala. This is an "Akshamalika" ( garland of letters). All mantras (whose count is 7 crores) and all knowledge resides in this mala." -Akshamalkopanishad

It is strung with wool, and woolen spacers are placed between the beads to protect them as well as to provide an 'Asana' or seat to all the Rudraksha. Wool makes the mala stronger, more flexible and light-weight. It may be worn or carried in a pouch on the person, or placed at the altar.

Important Note

Depending on the availability instead of 14 mukhi bead, Rudralife gives a 15 mukhi Rudraksha (Pashupatinath). Mala's effectiveness is increased as 15 mukhi has all qualities of 14 mukhi, additionally a 15 mukhi is a good alternative of 1 mukhi of Nepal.
