2. Discussion of Related Technology

Generally, the hair extension technology connects one or more extension hair pieces to hair of a person or an animal. The extension hair pieces are to make the person/animal's hair look longer or thicker and/or add color accents to the person/animal's hair. The extension hair pieces for hair extension are in various forms and shapes, and include hair weaves, widgets, etc. In order to attach hair extension to customer's natural hair, various methods using metal tubes, double-sided tape, hair pins have been used. Extension hair pieces are expensive, and the handling, storing and organizing of the extension hair pieces require a lot of care.

U.S. Pat. No. 7,343,921 to Salinas discloses a hair extension apparatus that includes an anchor band with mounting holes for accepting a portion. Of customer's hair strands and tubular ferrules that hold customer's hair strands.
