Abstract
A hair retaining device is shown which uses a slender oversized roller and oversized hair pins (usually two). The device is intended for wearers with long hair. The hair beyond the neck is rolled on the roller and pinned to the nape of the neck, thus giving the wearer with long hair the appearance of a short hair haircut.
