Xin - from the Chinese capital Beijing - spend six months making models of 2012 icons like his country's national heroine, hurdler Liu Xiang.
Others included the Olympic mascots Wenlock and Mandeville, an Olympic torch, the stadium and even one of the Queen.
"It took six kilograms of hair to complete them all," explained Xin.
"Some of them are woven, some of them stuck or bonded but they are all pure hair," he added.
But Xin has vowed never to sell his Olympic hair-looms.
"These are part of my history. I could never part with them," he said.
