This device secures hair while sewing hair in looping patterns in the formation of the hairstyle dreadlocks.
- Invention methods include methods having steps to provide a needle having a curved body, a hair-extension-eye first end, and a blunt-tip second end; to provide a lock of hair extension; threading the lock into the eye; and the stitch the lock into the client's hair. In some versions, the needle has a curved body (sometimes the curve is continuous along at least 80-90% or 85-95% of the body) and comprises a viscoelastic polymer-based material. The needle has an eye sized to receive hair-extension locks. In some versions, the lock has a diameter of 1/64 inch to % inch. In some versions, the eye's length is 10 to 35% or 10 to 25% of the needle's total length. Typically, the needle is blunt in that it will not puncture the skin in regular use.
- The hair-extension locks come in various styles and colors, including micro braid extensions, Dreadlocks, beaded lock extensions, etc. The hair can be artificial or real. The threading-the-lock step encompasses a large variety of different threading techniques, including looping the lock through the eye one or two times after threading it through the eye, a small part of the way or halfway along the length of the hair extension.
