Abstract: A device for producing a "hair wrap". The device includes an elongated open ended tube which has a layer of decorative material on the outside of the tube and an elongated filament loosely positioned within the tube and extending from both ends of the tube. One extending end of the filament has a loop. The device is used by extending a strand of hair through the loop at a first end of the tube and pulling the filament from the opposite end of the tube so that the loop and strand of hair are drawn into the tube. The tube or decorative material at the first end of the tube is secured to the strand of hair near the scalp and the filament is withdrawn from the tube. More specifically, the layer of decorative material are formed by winding a pair of strands of decorative material such as string or yarn about the tube so that an end of each strand of decorative material extends beyond the first end of the tube. The freely extending ends of the strand are used to secure the device to the strand of hair.

Abstract: A tie fastener having an elastomeric cord formed into a loop by passing the terminal ends of the cord through a compression spring actuated cord lock. A stop bead positioned on the loop prevents the loop end of the elastomeric cord from inadvertently being removed from the cord lock. Pendant beads affixed to the terminal ends of the cord prevent the cord from inadvertently being pulled out of the cord lock.
