Easy adjusting hair extension device

Abstract

A hair extension device is made easily adjustable and convenient to use by providing attached adjustment mechanisms which are inconspicuous and easy to hide. The hair extension device is generally formed as a headband, including a supporting base panel and a connection strand. The supporting base panel can accommodate extension hair in various patterns, and has adjustment mechanisms attached thereto. The size adjustment mechanisms are specifically configured to cooperate with the connection strand to effectively shorten the length of the headband structure and thereby adjust the size of the device.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to hair pieces or hair extensions, and more specifically to a hair extension device which can be easily adjusted to fit the user's needs.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Hair extensions are widely used for a number of purposes in society today. As one example, hair extensions or hair pieces may be utilized to conceal bald or thinning spots on an individual's head. Additionally, hair extensions may be used for unique or special occasions where a slightly different hairstyle is desired. Generally speaking, these extensions simply supplement the wearer's existing hair, thus providing an immediate change in the user's look. These hair extensions can also be easily removed, thus giving the user the option of multiple styles and multiple variations in their appearance.[0003]Generally speaking, hair extensions include some type of holding device for supporting multiple strands of replacement hair. This holding device or holding stru...

Benefits of technology

[0008]The present invention addresses the above-referenced concerns by providing a hair extension which is adjustable, convenient, efficient and easy to use. Most significantly, the hair extension is easily adjusted without the need for additional structures or additional components. As such, the user is able to easily configure and position the hair extension as desired. The sizing mechanisms or size adjusting mechanisms are incorporated into existing structures, thus avoiding the need for additional components. Further, the adjustment system is easily concealed, thus avoiding any additional complications when incorporating the hair extensions into a user's hair.

[0010]In addition to the above, the hair extension device of the present invention includes a connection strand which extends from one end of the base panel to an opposite end of the base panel, thus completing a ring or circular type configuration. As can be anticipated, the base panel can thus be placed at a desired position on the user's head, and the connection strand will wrap around a remaining portion of the user's head, thus providing a headband type configuration. The connection strand is permanently affixed to both sides of the base panel, thus creating one unitary device. This unitary construction eliminates the need to keep track of multiple components and avoids the need to make connections at various points.

[0011]In addition to the connection strand, the base panel also contains an adjustment structure which is specifically designed to cooperate with the connection strand, thus allowing for easy adjustment. This adjustment mechanism may take on various configurations; however, it is generally designed to allow winding or wrapping of the connection strand, thereby necessarily shortening the headband.
