as shown in fig1 a hair accessory 10 is shown . it includes a central annular elastic hair band 11 of diameter d having an outer circumferential surface 12 . a series of annular elastic hair loops 13 each of diameter d 1 integrally attached to the central hair band 11 at the outer circumferential surface 12 thereof where d is greater than d 1 , say 3 d 1 is equal to d . the respective axes of symmetry l 1 . . . l 7 of the cenral hair band and the series of hair loops are coextensive and parallel to each other . fig2 shows usage of the hair accessory 10 of the invention . as shown , the hair accessory 10 is attached to the apex of the head 20 of a woman 21 . note that hair 22 is captured only within the central band 11 by conventional infusion of the hair 22 of greater diameter than the latter so that its expansion captures the hair 22 therein . to provide capture , the “ workings ” diameter of central band 11 can be reduced by a factor of two by twisting the central band 11 from diametrically opposed segments and then overlaying the reduced half - segments over each other . next , a strand of the hair 22 is inserted through the overlapped half - segments . fig3 shows other usage of the hair accessory 10 of the invention . as shown , the hair accessory 10 is again attached to the apex of the head 20 of a women 21 . note that hair 22 is captured only within the loops 13 . to provide capture , the “ working ” diameter of each loop 13 can be reduced by a factor of two by twisting each such loop 13 from diametrically opposed segments and then overlaying the reduced half - segments over each other . next , a strand of the hair 22 is inserted through the overlapped half - segments . fig4 and 5 show other usage of the hair accessory 10 of the invention . as shown , the hair accessory 10 is again attached to the apex of the head 20 of a women 21 . note that hair 22 is captured both with central band 11 and within the loops 13 . in fig4 the hair 22 forms a bun 23 . in fig5 the hair 22 forms spikes 24 . note that the effective diameters of the central band 11 and the loops 13 can be reduced in the manner set forth above . in accordance with fig2 - 5 , note that many different hair styles can be easily achieved . that is to say , different diametered hair stands can be captured by the combination of the central hair band 11 and the series of loops 13 to create many novel hairstyles . as shown , hair accessory 10 ′ is composed a central elastic band 30 having three loops 31 formed over a segment 32 of the band 30 where the length g of the segment 32 is about ⅓ of the total circumference of the band 30 . the respective axes of symmetry l 1 . . . l 4 of the central hair band 30 and the series of hair loops 31 are coextensive and parallel to each other . manipulation for hair control is as previously taught . fig7 shows still another embodiment of the hair accessory of the invention . as shown , hair accessary 10 ″ is composed a central elastic band 40 having four loops 41 formed equally spaced about the central bond 40 where a segment 42 is provided neighboring loops 41 to which a series of bead strings 43 is attached . the respective axes of symmetry l 1 . . . l 5 of the central hair band 40 and the series of hair loops 41 are coextensive and parallel to each other . again , hair manipulation is as previously taught . fig8 shows still yet another embodiment of the hair accessory of the invention . as shown , hair accessory 10 ′″ is composed a central elastic band 50 having five loops 51 formed over about ⅔ of the total circumference of the band 50 wherein the segment 52 thereby provided is free to accommodate a series of ribbon strings 53 . the respective axes of symmetry l 1 . . . l 6 of the central hair band 50 and the series of hair loops 51 are coextensive and parallel to each other . again , hair manipulation is as previously taught . fig9 shows still yet another embodiment of the hair accessory of the invention . as shown , hair accessory 10 ″″ is composed a central elastic band 60 having five star shaped extensions 61 formed over the total circumference of the band 60 wherein lace domes 63 extend about the extensions 61 along with artificial flowers 64 . the respective axes of symmetry l 1 . . . l 6 of the central hair band 60 and the series of hair loops 61 are coextensive and parallel to each other . still again , hair manipulation is as previously taught . fig1 shows still yet another embodiment of the hair accessory of the invention . as shown , hair accessory 10 ′″″ is composed of an oblong football shaped central elastic band 70 ( ellipsoidal ) having six similarly shaped extensions 71 formed over the total circumference of the band 70 . the respective axes of symmetry l 1 . . . l 7 of the central hair band 70 and the series of hair loops 71 are coextensive and parallel to each other . while the invention has been shown and described with reference to embodiments thereof , it will be understood by those skilled in the art , that various changes , alternatives and variations in form and detail may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention . for example , the shape of the central band and loops can be changed to various arcuate segments including circular , oblong etc . similarly , while attachment of the loops to the central band is preferably integral , other forms such as adhesives , glues and the like could also be used . also different materials such as pleated scrunchy types can also be used wherein the latter are formed about an elastic ring .
a hair accessory and method of use for a woman &# 39 ; s hair located at the apex of the head . the hair accessory includes a central angulated elastic hair band having an outer circumferential surface and a series of angulated elastic hair loops each integrally attached to the central hair band at the outer circumferential surface thereof . the respective axes of symmetry of the central hair band and the series of hair loops are coextensive and parallel . the shape of the central band and loops can vary from circular to ellipsoidal .
