Abstract
A hair curling roller having an oval-shaped, elongated body with two rounded ends and a U-shaped clip attached to an annular pivotal housing embedded through one rounded end of the body. The opposite end of the U-shaped clip has an enlarged spherical tip adapted to slide over a groove which extends through the rounded end of the oval-shaped body. As the sperical tip slides over the groove, the clip is pulled towards the oval-shaped body, securing any hair wound around the roller. In an alternate embodiment the traverse cross-section of the body is circular in shape and the clip is rotatably secured to the body by a ball and socket.
