ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for artificially implanting hair in human skin tissue is disclosed wherein a strand of hair is folded upon itself to define a pair of strands joined together by a U-shaped bend at which an enlarged anchor element is provided to be implanted in the skin with the strand of hair exposed above the surface. The apparatus includes a plurality of needles carried in a side-by-side relationship on a base member each needle having an interior bore in which the anchor element is held with the hair strands held by a hair clamp on the enterior of the needle. The needle is inserted into the skin and the anchor is dislodged therefrom whereupon withdrawal of the needle leaves the anchor implanted with the hair strands exposed above the skin surface.
