ABSTRACT:
A doll includes a hollow head and torso joined at the neck. The head supports a quantity of conventionally rooted simulated hair and defines a center aperture in the top portion thereof. The torso defines an internal laterally extending post and an aperture positioned on the upper rear torso. A length of simulated hair defines a fixed end secured to the doll's head and extending downwardly through the head and torso and upwardly and outwardly through the centrally located aperture and terminates in a free end. A ring encircles the intermediate loop formed in the adjustable hair segment within the torso interior and a flexible ribbon is coupled to the ring and passes beneath the laterally extending post and upwardly and outwardly through the aperture on the rear torso's surface. A conventional comb is secured to the remaining external end of the flexible ribbon. The hair length of the adjustable hair segment may be drawn inwardly for shorter length by withdrawing the flexible ribbon from the torso or, alternatively, may be drawn outwardly from the head to produce an increased length of adjsutable hair segment.
