Abstract

A stretch comb hair retainer has opposed combs connected together by elastic filament strand segments that extend at spaced intervals between the spines of the combs. The elastic strands are crisscrossed to form a cris-cross pattern having stretchable openings between the combs. Hair can be pulled through any of the multiple stretchable openings of the cris-cross pattern if and as desired to create particular hair styles. The individual elastic strands forming the cris-cross pattern can be used without decorative elements on the strands, or with decorative elements such as decorative beads of various sizes and shapes. The crisscrossed strand segments can be interconnected or interlaced or partially interconnected or partially interlaced, or can be comprised of a combination of interlaced and interconnected strand segments.
