Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems, methods, and devices for securing a hair retention device hidden (at least partially) from view using a bracelet. Such embodiments include a bracelet having an annular shape. Further, the bracelet includes an annular cavity along a side of the bracelet to retain a hair retention device and an open cavity that allows a user to access the hair retention device.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWe claim:
1 . A device, comprising:
a bracelet having an annular shape, the bracelet comprising a front surface, a rear surface having a circumference, a top surface, and a bottom surface configured to be positioned closest to a wrist of a user, wherein the bracelet comprises a first portion and a second portion; an annular cavity contiguously defined along the circumference of the rear surface, the rear surface having a portion adjacent to the bottom surface, the annular cavity configured to receive, partially hide, and secure a hair retention device; and a fastener comprising a first part of the fastener and a second part of the fastener, wherein the first part of the fastener is coupled to the first portion of the bracelet and the second part of the fastener is coupled to the second portion of the bracelet.
2 . The device of claim 1 , comprising a hinge coupled to the first portion of the bracelet and the second portion of the bracelet.
3 . The device of claim 2 , wherein the hinge allows the bracelet to be in an open position and in a closed position.
4 . The device of claim 3 , wherein the first part of the fastener couples to the second part of the fastener in the closed position.
5 . The device of claim 1 , comprising an open cavity that exposes the annular cavity through the bottom surface and the portion of the rear surface adjacent to the bottom surface of the bracelet, the open cavity is configured to access the hair retention device.
6 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the front surface, the rear surface, the top surface, and the bottom surface are each a flat surface.
7 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the fastener comprises one of a tab or button.
8 . A method, comprising:
providing a bracelet having an annular shape, the bracelet comprising a front surface, a rear surface having a circumference, a top surface, and a bottom surface configured to be positioned closest to a wrist of a user, wherein the bracelet comprises an annular cavity contiguously defined along the circumference of the rear surface, the rear surface having a portion adjacent to the bottom surface, the annular cavity configured to receive, partially hide, and secure a hair retention device, and wherein the bracelet comprises inserting a hair retention device into the annular cavity of the bracelet. fastening a first part of a fastener coupled to a first portion of the bracelet to a second part of the fastener coupled to a second portion of the bracelet.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the fastening the first part of the fastener to the second part of the fastener comprises closing the bracelet from an open position to a closed position.
10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein a hinge is coupled to the first portion of the bracelet and to the second portion of the bracelet.
11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the closing the bracelet from the open position to the closed position comprises coupled the first part of the fastener to the second part of the fastener.
12 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the bracelet comprises an open cavity that exposes the annular cavity through the bottom surface and the portion of the rear surface adjacent to the bottom surface of the bracelet, the open cavity is configured to access the hair retention device.
13 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising removing the hair retention device using the open cavity.
14 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising removing the hair retention device using the open cavity.
15 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the front surface, the rear surface, the top surface, and the bottom surface are each a flat surface.
16 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the fastener comprises one of a tab or button.
17 . A device, comprising:
a bracelet having an annular shape, the bracelet comprising a front surface, a rear surface having a circumference, a top surface, and a bottom surface configured to be positioned closest to a wrist of a user, wherein the bracelet comprises a first portion and a second portion; an annular cavity contiguously defined along the circumference of the rear surface, the rear surface having a portion adjacent to the bottom surface, the annular cavity configured to receive, partially hide, and secure a hair retention device; and a fastener comprising a first part of the fastener and a second part of the fastener, wherein the first part of the fastener is coupled to the first portion of the bracelet and the second part of the fastener is coupled to the second portion of the bracelet, wherein the first part of the fastener couples to the second part of the fastener in a closed position.
18 . The device of claim 17 , comprising a hinge coupled to the first portion of the bracelet and the second portion of the bracelet.
19 . The device of claim 18 , wherein the hinge allows the bracelet to be in an open position and in the closed position.
20 . The device of claim 17 , wherein the front surface, the rear surface, the top surface, and the bottom surface are each a flat surface.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
