Refreshable edge concealed anchor hair weft installation

Abstract

Apparatus and associated methods relate to refreshable hair weft installation structure. In an illustrative example, the structure includes a bead placement. The bead placement, for example, may include N anchor beads disposed from an end of a hair parting line until a longitudinal line of one side of a user's head along a first latitudinal contour at a distance x 1 below the hair parting line. For example, the bead placement may also include M foundation beads disposed between the N-th anchor beads and a back of the user's head along a second latitudinal contour above the first latitudinal contour. The anchor beads are attached to a hair weft with a surface stitch tying only wefts and multiple backward stitches tying the wefts with a hair pocket of the anchor beads. Various embodiments may advantageously remove stress around the anchor beads and/or provide a refreshable edge without re-installation of the wefts.
