Hiding weapons in hair

With enough planning you can hide a weapon almost anywhere. Here’s an extreme example.

I’ve done it. Sort of, anyway.

I don’t have a 'fro. I’ve got long hair which is always tied back in a ponytail (I’m a guy, if that’s at all relevant here).

Back in the bad old days of New York City, I always carried a small can of pepper spray. Sometimes I’d go out to a nightclub or something where you’d be patted down before you could enter.

The pepper spray cans I carried were quite small, and had a shirt-pocket clip (like a pen). I’d clip the can to the rubber band tying up my hair (between my neck and the ponytail – best way I can think of to describe it).

It was never found, and I must have been patted down a hundred times.

Of course, I was never arrested and searched by a real pro, like a cop or corrections officer.

As part of a proffessional search, the hair is checked, you start at the top of the bodywith the suspects arms raised and work your way down and actually feel the material not pat it.

The searches on T.V. and in the movies are a joke.

I can’t watch the video at work…but I must know. Where did the person hide the weapon, please?

This one was a little over the top. A young man had a dozen or so pistols (a few of them rather large) and a rifle hidden by baggy jeans – stuffed into pockets, waistbands, and down the pants leg. You couldn’t tell just looking at the front of him standing there, but it wouldn’t have been a realistic set-up in terms of walking around unnoticed. Nevertheless, he could have moved around normally with a few of the smaller pistols tucked away without it being obvious.

Oh, I agree. But the point was that with enough planning you can hide anything anywhere. Someone with long hair should be able to hide something as small and light as a Ruger LCP or a .22 derringer.
