Locks down

Abstract

My invention the Locks Down is a head covering consisting of: a hooded portion that sits on top of the wearers head, a back portion containing a pocket/passageway for the hair/braids to pass through, middle and bottom straps positioned on the back portion of the invention to hold the hair/braids in place. The method of application of this invention is as such: the wearer puts their hand through the passageway grabbing their hair and pulling it through the passageway. Then the hooded portion is pulled towards the top of the wearers head and positioned on top of head. Next the straps on the hooded portion are tied behind the wearers head securing the invention in place. Then the middle and bottom straps are snapped beneath the pocketed portion of the invention, between the back of the wearers neck and the invention keeping the hair/braids secure. The invention can be made from many different materials, such as cotton, leather, terry cloth and water resistant fabrics. These are just examples of materials that can be used, and this invention is not limited to these materials. With the many different materials used for this invention, come different uses for the invention. When terry cloth is used to make this invention, it can be used for drying hair. When leather is used it can be used as an extra secure way to hold hair in place while riding a motorcycle. When water resistant material is used with this invention it can be used to prevent hair from getting wet while showering or in rainy weather. These are examples of different uses, but the invention is not limited to theses examples.
