Portable Locking Styling and Designing Hair Beading Apparatus

Abstract

A portable locking, styling and designing, hair beading apparatus with a length of lacing. The apparatus holds a plurality of beads without tangling and knotting. Attaches to a table top or wall for example; with a suction cup, has a long-term locking mechanism making the filled apparatus portable using the loop, button and suction cup. Has a short-term locking mechanism using the loop and hook, for intermittent breaks while in use. Also has a cord lock to control the position of beads along the length of the lacing, keeping the beads within easy reach to transfer to the braid.

Having described my invention, I claim: 
     
         1 . A portable locking styling and designing hair beading apparatus comprising:
 a needle and loop formed at one end of a length of lacing that holds a plurality of beads while resisting knotting or tangling allowing for pre-design of beaded patterns;   a button and suction cup with hook glued to the adjacent end of the length of lacing;   a cord lock that slides up and down the length of lacing when engaged controls the position of the beads keeping them within easy reach to transfer to the braid;   a long-term locking mechanism for portability;   a short-term locking mechanism for intermittent breaks.   
     
     
         2 . A method of engaging the locking mechanisms, comprising the steps of:
 forming a needle by folding the lacing and gluing it back to itself, a loop where the two sides of the lacing are left unglued, closing the loop by again gluing the lacing to itself;   placing the loop over the suction cup with hook, resting between the button and suction cup;   engaging a long-term locking mechanism, preventing beads from falling off the lacing, making pre-beaded designs portable.   
     
     
         3 . A method as defined in  claim 2 , comprising the steps of:
 attaching the suction cup with hook to a wall or table top for example;   placing the loop on the hook;   engaging a short-term locking mechanism, for intermittent breaks while the beading apparatus is in use, preventing beads from falling off the lacing.
