Hair is often bundled together using a hair band, hair elastic, scrunchie, clip, or a similar apparatus. The difficulty with these products is the inability to remove them from hair without pulling out hair follicles and causing pain or discomfort. An advantage of this apparatus and method is the quick, easy release of hair without needing to put tension on hair to remove the apparatus. This allows for versatile styling that reduces tangles, pulling, and breakage. The inability to remove these existing products from hair can also be time-consuming. Disclosed is an apparatus and method for bundling items such as hair using an apparatus comprising a material connected by a fastener and then unbundling the items by disconnecting the fastener with one hand. Furthermore, the apparatus can be customized with different designs and include various technologies, such as activity monitors, microphones, cameras, speakers, digital wallets, and the like.

A hair claw clip includes a first jaw and a second jaw that is pivotally connected to the first jaw at a hinge. The first and second jaw each has a indicia portion monolithically formed as an integral part of the respective first and second jaw. The indicia portion has at least one opening through the respective first and second jaw that forms part of a character that can be read from a side of the respective first and second jaw. Each first and second jaw further includes a jaw body forming a lower part of the indicia portion and a handle portion that extends outward from the jaw body at an angle to the jaw body. The handle portion forms an upper part of the indicia portion. The hinge is located between the handle portions of the first and second jaws. The first and second jaws and the indicia portion share an outermost first terminal edge and an outermost second terminal edge opposite from the first terminal edge. The handle portion and upper part of the indicia portion extend across entire widths of the first and second jaws from the outermost first terminal edge to the outermost second terminal edge.

A hair accessory is for use with a plurality of hair ornaments. The hair accessory includes a gripping member and an elastic member. The gripping member grips hair of a user, and has a body and a plurality of gripping protrusions. The body has a first side, a second side, and a plurality of through holes extending from the first side to the second side. The elastic member is woven among the through holes and is configured such that a plurality of associated elastic segments are located on each of the first and second sides of the body, thereby allowing the plurality of hair ornaments to be maintained on the first side of the body.

In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a garment includes a main body portion configured for covering at least a portion of an upper torso of a wearer and at least one pocket operatively associated with the main body portion. The pocket is configured to hold hair of the wearer such that a weight of the hair of the wearer is distributed throughout the at least one pocket and the main body portion of the garment to reduce a pulling force of the hair on a scalp of the wearer.

One or more embodiments of the present invention relate to a core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair that includes a core and a sheath. The core is composed of a polyester-based resin composition containing a polyester-based resin as a main component, and the sheath is composed of a polyamide-based resin composition containing a polyamide-based resin as a main component. The polyester-based resin composition and the polyamide-based resin composition contain a bromine-based flame retardant. In the core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair, a core-to-sheath area ratio of the core to the sheath is 2:8 to 8:2. A fiber cross-section of the core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair has a flat multilobed shape, and the fiber cross-section includes a hollow portion. A ratio of an area of the hollow portion to a total area of the fiber cross-section is 5% or more and 30% or less. The hollow portion has a polygonal shape. As a result, fibers for artificial hair that have a texture similar to that of human hair, high durability, favorable curl setting properties, and high flame resistance are provided.

A hair claw clip includes a first jaw and a second jaw that is pivotally connected to the first jaw at a hinge. The first and second jaw each has a indicia portion monolithically formed as an integral part of the respective first and second jaw. The indicia portion has at least one opening through the respective first and second jaw that forms part of a character that can be read from a side of the respective first and second jaw. Each first and second jaw further includes a jaw body forming a lower part of the indicia portion and a handle portion that extends outward from the jaw body at an angle to the jaw body. The handle portion forms an upper part of the indicia portion. The hinge is located between the handle portions of the first and second jaws. The first and second jaws and the indicia portion share an outermost first terminal edge and an outermost second terminal edge opposite from the first terminal edge. The handle portion and upper part of the indicia portion extend across entire widths of the first and second jaws from the outermost first terminal edge to the outermost second terminal edge.

A shaft, apparatus, and method for threading a beader tool with hair beads are disclosed. In one embodiment of the apparatus, multiple silos form an array with each silo being sized to allow the passage of a beader tool while preventing hair beads from escaping. The interior of each silo is tailored to accommodate a stack of hair beads, with the height of the silos being sufficient to house at least the shaft of the beader tool. A support structure secures the array of silos in an upward orientation. This support structure takes the form of a box, which defines a chamber beneath the array of silos. The chamber is designed with a height that can accommodate at least a loop of the beader tool and includes a drawer for additional utility. This apparatus presents a practical and innovative solution for simplifying the process of threading hair beads.

Soft nylon strips that can be braided around the hair after it has been parted into sections. After the hair is braided, the braid is inserted into the nylon sock. Pull the hair behind the head and tie the braids together. If you can't reach, you can pin the braid to the head using a bobby pin. You can leave the cords in overnight. The longer the strips are left in, the more the hair is stretched.

An ornamental hair clip assembly comprising at least one clip member with perforations configured to receive interchangeable decorative accessories. Each accessory includes a decorative head, a stem extending from the head, and a retention member at the opposing end of the stem. The retention member is compressible to pass through a perforation and expand to secure the accessory, leaving the decorative head externally visible. The clip members are hingedly connected to pivot between open and closed positions, with prongs or engagement members configured to grip the user's hair. The system enables rapid customization by interchanging decorative elements such as gemstones, flowers, symbols, or abstract shapes, while maintaining the functionality of a conventional hair clip.
