Abstract:

A personal grooming device and method for making such, comprising an elongate flexible member encased in a flexible fabric or leather sheath. The fabric encasement or sheath is secured beyond each end of the encased wire, so as to prevent the separation of parts. Securement is achieved by knotting the fabric encasement or cord beyond each end of the encased wire. Articles of this invention may be of any desired length to be used for many purposes. Such uses include a hair fastener, a hair holder for a ponytail, a hair curling rod, a headband, a necklace, a bracelet or for other uses unrelated to personal grooming.
