Abstract
A decorative baby hair piece has a decorative adornment of embroidered ribbon attached to a lace backing element or a large bow without the backing element and a hair lock attached with glue to the decorative adornment. The hair lock includes two elongated, flexible, plastic strips having ends laser welded together and opposite ends left open. The open ends facilitate positioning baby hair between opposing surfaces of the two strips. Elongated male and female flexible plastic elements having corresponding lock forming shapes are formed integrally with the two strips and coact when pressed together to form a zipper type lock. Thus, with baby hair positioned across the male and female locking elements and the plastic strips pressed together to zip lock the locking elements together, the hair and the strips are simultaneously locked together for securing the decorative baby hair piece to the baby's hair.
