Problems solved by technology

Glue used with weft and strand methods is harmful to a wearer's native hair and scalp.
However, sewing methods look less natural.
Sewing methods are more time consuming to install, and during removal of the thread, the native hair of the wearer is cut by accident.
Additional disadvantages of the glue and sewing methods are that glue causes substantial hair loss to the wearer.
The Inventor has found that glue methods can fall off in warm temperatures, and so can weft t...

first embodiment

[0057]The wefted hair extensions 132 are flipped over 134 to their non braided side 135. These embodiments are easily removed by the wearer, merely by unraveling the distal end 126 of the braid. Approximately 30 minutes time lapses for take down. There is no accidental cutting of native hair 106 as occurs with sewing methods, and no harmful results as occurs with glues, and small fasteners.

[0058]Various methods of securing and removing the present NoSho wefted hair extensions 132 to and from the native hair 106 of the wearer are also disclosed herein. These methods all include the steps for creating custom wefted hair extensions 132 without any tools. Essentially, these embodiments are an alternative to commercially sold weft extensions. These embodiments provide a camouflage to hide commercial weft tracks anywhere, including the crown area of a wearer's head. Additionally, my embodiments are an alternative method of hair extensions currently used by Caucasians and Asians.

second embodiment

Detailed Description of Second Embodiment

Article of Manufacture: FIGS. 7, 8, and 9

[0059]A second embodiment is an article of manufacture 170 and hair kit that has a finished beginning, and distal end 126. Individual hair strands 108 are intertwined directly with each other, rendering the joining invisible. A new product is formed—a wefted hair extension 132. A hair kit can contain at least two finishing touch hair extensions, a left side parent 138, and a right side parent cornrow 140.

[0060]A pin 162 such as a long sewing pin or other thin rigid structure that can be secured into or onto a stable base for support such as a long nail with no pin head 172 can be used. Alternatively, the pin 162—like structure may be of sufficient length so as to prevent the looped 166 hair strands from sliding off. A cushion or the arm of an arm chair will do. Otherwise, the pin 162—like structure may be secured into a stationery object such as a block of heavy wood, metal, or other stable surface.

Abstract

Various embodiments of wefted hair extensions 132 using individual hair strands 108 intertwined with each other to form a wefted product with a cornrow braid 120 base or edge 124, one of the two sides 123 of the cornrow braid 120 having at least one groove housing a plurality of individual hair strands. The zone of attachment is rendered invisible. The distal end is secured with a knot or other method. The final product is then flipped over to its non braided, seamless side. Installation is in pairs as parents only, parents and children, or individual wefts scattered throughout the wearer's head. A unique mirror image embodiment places two parent embodiments adjacent to each other such that their edges face each other, separated by a part line. The mirror image embodiment solves hair and scalp imperfections and is available as a hair kit. Embodiments can start right at the edges of a hairline using my technique, even if the wearer is mostly bald, has thinning hair 148, short hair, or has no hair problems.

To this present day women and some men have adorned their head with manes of luxurious hair extensions to feel glamorous and confident, whether they have existing flaws or not. Hair and scalp problems of thinning hair, short hair, receding hair line, and bald spots, and coarse texture encourage people to seek hair replacement and hair addition methods. The most common hair addition methods add length, vo...
