Abstract:

A hanging support for head bands, barrettes, and the like. The support has a hook in the manner of a coat hanger, and a horizontal rack bar snap fastens thereto. The rack bar has snap fasteners enabling attachment of additional rack bars. The rack bars have any one of three configurations, and may be selectively combined to form a semi-custom hanging support. The three configurations include straight tube, for attaching hair accessories having clips; spiralled, for draping molded plastic head bands thereon; and wire formed in the shape as horns, for encircling retention of closed loop resilient or flexible hair bands. Extension bars are optionally provided to increase spacing between adjacent rack bars. The constituent parts of the hanging support have similar cross sectional configuration, so that any combination of parts gives the impression of unitary appearance.
