Publication number: 20150351515Abstract: The presently disclosed technology teaches a hair accessory for receiving and restraining a bundle of hair, a method of making the hair accessory, and methods of styling hair and instructing others to style hair using the hair accessory. The hair accessory comprises a pair of opposing ductile metallic members. In one implementation, the ductile metallic members are generally rectangular and each has a pair of longitudinal ends. The ductile metallic members are covered by at least one backing member. The ductile metallic members are generally configured in an opposing relationship to each other with at least one closed end. The ductile metallic members may be separated from each other along a portion of their longitudinal lengths to define an opening for receiving a bundle of hair. The opposing ductile metallic members may also be closed about the bundle of hair to secure the hair accessory within a wearer's hair.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2014Publication date: December 10, 2015Inventor: Philis A Harvie

Patent number: 4892110Abstract: A hair wrap device having a flat ductile resistive metallic member capable of retaining its coiled shape when coiled about a bundle of human hair. Such metallic member is arranged on a backing member of approximately equal thickness to that of the metallic member, and the side edges of the backing member are folded over onto the side thereof on which the metallic member is located creating a gap between the edges of the folded-over portions in which the metallic member is placed. Together the flat ductile metallic member and folded-over portions form a flat surface to which a decorative cover member is attached. To prevent folding-over of the backing member and decorative cover member about the ductile member and consequent loss of aesthetic appeal, especially in the configuration where the ductile member is a thin elongate strip, the backing member is of a material resilient to its flexure and having a memory.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 1988Date of Patent: January 9, 1990Inventor: Philis A.
