An apparatus for gathering hair including a body having first and second ends, an inner surface, and a cavity with an opening formed in the body. The body includes a first passage extending from the inner surface to the cavity and a second passage aligned with the first passage and extending from a second surface to the cavity. The apparatus also includes a spring-biased cord lock mechanism within the cavity, and having a spring-biased member accessible through the opening and operable between first and second positions, whereby the spring biases the member toward the first position, and the lock mechanism defining a channel aligned with the first and second passages when the member is in the second position. The apparatus also includes a cord, in which a portion thereof passes through the first and second passages and the channel of the lock mechanism, thereby forming an adjustable loop. |

1. An apparatus for gathering hair, comprising:
a body having first and second ends, and inner and outer surfaces, and defining at the first end a cavity that has an opening formed in a first surface of the body, a first passage extending from the inner surface of the body to the cavity and a second passage aligned with the first passage and extending from a second surface of the body to the cavity; a spring-biased cord lock mechanism retained within the cavity, and having a spring-biased member accessible through the opening and operable between first and second positions, whereby the spring biases the member toward the first position, and the spring-biased cord lock mechanism defining a channel aligned with the first and second passages when the member is in the second position; a cord comprising a free end and a fixed end that is secured to the second end of the body, wherein a portion of the length of the cord passes through the first and second passages and the channel of the lock mechanism, thereby forming an adjustable loop. |
