Abstract

A cone mounted coaxially on a hand held motor. The cone has an open slot arranged to permit sliding a lock of hair through the slot. The lock wraps around the cone thereby forming a roll of hair when the motor is energized to rotate the cone. The cone is then separated from the roll and the hair is secured in place by a pin. A clamp/hook on the apex of the cone is provided to engage the free end of a lock of hair, a twist of hair (akin to a cable) is formed when the cone is rotated.
