ABSTRACT:
A retracting hairholder device includes a main body casing for retaining a tensioned coilable flexible non-elastic cord member. The flexible non-elastic cord member extends from the main body casing to form a loop and has a wound position and a plurality of measurable unwound positions. The flexible non-elastic cord member is coupled with a tension member contained within the main body casing which imparts sufficient tension upon the flexible non-elastic cord member such that it is pre-disposed toward a wound position so as to securely bind a lock of hair once placed within the loop. The flexible non-elastic cord member may be manually loosened or unwound in order to permit removal of the lock of hair. In one embodiment, the flexible non-elastic cord member may be locked into any position by a locking member. In another embodiment, a torquing member may be employed to confer added binding capabilities.
