Claims13
A method of styling hair, comprising:
- preparing the hair combing or braiding the hair;
- separating hair into a first half and a second half of combed hair, tying the first half and the second half together to create a common twisted end, pulling either the first half or the second half to a side to create a tucked half, inserting the styling device into the top of the tucked half, rotating the styling device about the tucked half, pushing the tucked half through the hairstyle to secure the hairstyle, untucking the tucked half and allowing the tucked half to “flop” over the styling device;
- securing the hairdo;
- and
- inserting a styling device having two non-parallel, non-planar, crossing and elongated portions into the hair-do to hold the hairdo by inserting the device from the bottom of the hairdo so that the elongated portions visibly protrude up and away from the hairdo.
A method of styling hair, comprising:
- preparing the hair by combing or braiding the hair;
- wrapping a mini ponytail around a length of hair to create a wrap, and wherein the act of inserting a styling device comprises inserting one elongated portion of the styling device over the top part of the wrap and then extending the elongated portion below the wrap;
- securing the hairdo;
- and
- inserting a styling device having two non-parallel, non-planar, crossing and elongated portions into the hair-do to hold the hairdo by inserting the device from the bottom of the hairdo so that the elongated portions visibly protrude up and away from the hairdo.
A styling device, comprising:
- a first elongated portion having a first tip;
- a second elongated portion having a second tip;
- an intermediate portion that rigidly couples the first elongated portion to the second elongated portion;
- and
- a first styling module coupled to the first tip and a second styling module coupled to the second tip,
- the styling device securing a mini ponytail twisted hairdo that is created by inserting the styling device into the hairdo from the bottom of the hairdo so that the elongated portions protrude visibly up and away from the hairdo while the intermediate portion is not visible.
