I think Donald Trump owes this guy a ton of money.
1. A method for styling hair to cover bald areas using only the individual’s own hair, comprising separating the hair on the head into several substantially equal sections, taking the hair on one section and placing it over the bald area, then taking the hair on another section and placing it over the first section, and finally taking the hair on the remaining sections and placing it over the other sections whereby the bald area will be completely covered.
BACKGROUND OF THIS INVENTION
For those people who are partially bald and wish to cover the bald area hair transplants, hair weaving and hairpieces are the most commonly used solutions. The cost of covering bald areas by one of these methods can range from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars depending on a person’s choice and financial means. Some of these commonly used bald area coverings require periodic care, which generally cost money.
Obviously a partially bald person without the financial means can not afford the luxury of such hair coverings. This person, therefore, has few options; he can attempt to use his own hair to cover the bald area, but generally most people do not have the ability to properly plan a hair style that will look good, and most attempts result in brushing the hair in one direction over the bald area, or he can allow his baldness to show.

This post is from a guy who has been bald for 25 years.Comb overs look better than a wig but they both look goofy compared to a perfect head.
I’ve got it! Hats that look like hair! Race you to the patent office! ~poof~
Just shave it!
If it was good enough for Cptn. Picard, it’s good enough for the rest of the baldies!
(I on the other hand have a FULL head of thick hair, cow licked all over the place, though)
I can see the headline in an upcoming post:

Bring back the powdered wig.
1977?
Prior art.
Very prior…
If I comb my back hair in a decorative pattern, can I patent that — provided I don’t infringe on someone’s logo?
Should I patent my Unix guru pony tail?
I’d like to see a Cease and Desist order.
I can’t believe this patent was awarded. If you’ve read your Suetonius lately, you’ll know that the combover was originally “invented” by Julius Caesar.
