Abstract
A hair decorating system that includes a string covered in wax in a first configuration, coiled around an interior segment in a second configuration where end segments are attached, and a third configuration where the coil has been extended to form a crisscrossed pattern around a strand of hair. The crisscrossed pattern is both attractive and decorative.
Claims20
A hair decorating system comprising:
- a length of string having a first end segment, an interior segment contiguous with the first end segment, an exterior segment contiguous with and coiled around the interior segment, and a second end segment contiguous with the coiled exterior segment, wherein the first and second end segments are attached and the coiled exterior segment is enabled to move from a compressed coiled position to an extended position.
A hair decorating system comprising:
- a length of string having a first end segment, an interior segment contiguous with the first end segment, an exterior segment contiguous with and coiled around the interior segment, and a second end segment contiguous with the exterior segment, the first and second end segments being attached;
- and
- the interior segment and a portion of the exterior segment extend in a crisscross pattern with a remaining portion of the exterior segment.
A hair decorating system comprising:
- a length of string having a first end segment, a second end segment, an interior segment contiguous with and extending from the first end segment, a first coiled exterior segment contiguous with the interior segment, and a second coiled exterior segment contiguous with the first coiled exterior segment, the second coiled exterior segment extending to the second end segment;
- and
- the length of string is enabled to move through three configurations, a first uncoiled configuration, a second compressed configuration, and a third crisscrossed configuration, wherein in the first configuration the length of string is not coiled, in the second configuration the first and second end segments are attached and the first and second exterior segments are coiled around the interior segment, and in the third configuration the first and second end segments are attached and the interior segment and the first coiled portion of the exterior segment form a crisscrossed pattern with the second coiled exterior.
A method of making a hair decorating system comprising the steps of:
- providing a length of string having contiguous first and second end segments, an interior segment and an exterior segment;
- forming a layer of wax around the length of string;
- restraining the first end segment and the interior segment;
- coiling the exterior segment around the interior segment in a direction toward the first end segment;
- and
- attaching the first and the second end segments.
