Abstract

The present invention provides a method of adding extensions to a wearers own intact hair. The hair extension of the present invention includes a plurality of artificial or human hair strands having a length, turned about a separate rod, the rod is used only to form the open loop. The rod is removed leaving a one embodiment hair extension, comprising of a length of hair having a first end with an open loop and a second end that is banded or tied. Whereby the wearers hair is prepared to receive the open loop extension by plaiting cornrows horizontally on the wearers head. The open loop first end of the extension is inserted through a section of a cornrow plait vertically, under crossing the cornrow plait to the scalp, until the full loop is visible, the open loop is ready to receive the banded or tied second end. By inserting the banded or tied second end of the extension completely through the first end open loop, pulling tight, causing a looping around the plaited cornrow section, resulting in a completely attached one embodiment open loop extension.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An attachable open loop hair extension pre-manufactured, comprising: a plurality of hair strands having a length, having a first end with an open loop and a second end that is banded or tied,  
     
     
         2 . The hair extension  claim 1 , wherein the open loop extension comprises artificial or human hair,  
     
     
         3 . The hair extension  claim 1 , whereby a plurality of artificial or human hair is turned about a separate rod during manufacturing, the rod is used only to form the first end open loop, the second end of the open loop extension is banded or tied.  
     
     
         4 . The hair extension  claim 2 , whereby an open loop extension having a first end with an open loop and a second end that is banded or tied is virtually undetectable when attached to the wearers own intact hair.  
     
     
         5 . A method for manufacturing and preparing an open loop extension, the method comprising the steps of: a plurality of artificial or human hair strands having a length, turned about a separate rod used only to form the first end open loop, and the second end that is banded or tied, completing a one embodiment single open loop extension, ready for attachment to the wearers own intact hair,  
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the open loop extension when attached to the wearers own intact hair will give the look of braided extensions when braided, or a fuller head of hair when the banded or tied second end is removed after the open loop extension is attached,  
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the method further comprises the steps of: attaching the open loop extension., whereby the wearers own intact hair is prepared by plaiting cornrow plaits horizontally on the wearers entire head and the open loop extension first end is inserted through a section of a cornrow plait under crossing the plait vertically to the scalp until the full open loop is visible, the open loop is ready to receive the banded or tied second end, by inserting the second end completely through the awaiting open loop first end, pulling the second end tight, causing a looping around the plaited cornrow section, thus a securely attached one embodiment open loop extension.
