Abstract

The proposed invention is uniquely configured to allow for the efficient organization, storage and use of hair extensions in a salon setting where it can easily fit into a typical salon work station or cart. The two-piece book design allows for ease of operation and transport as well as the stacking of multiple cases. The specialized cut-out sections in each end of invention facilitate direct access to the attachable end of a hair extension and allow for the storage of longer hair extensions when the invention is closed. The vertical pin arrangement on the interior of the invention prevents damage to the hair extensions and keeps them organized, lying flat and separated. These design elements help the stylist to stay organized and work quickly and efficiently. Because the invention can be easily cleaned and sanitized, it can be manufactured to meet most, if not all, state cosmetology sanitation codes.
