A ponytail hair extension includes a base comprising one or more pieces of fabric, including a topmost piece of fabric, one or more hair wefts sewn to each of the pieces of fabric, a hook attached to the topmost piece of fabric, and an elastic band having two ends, wherein there is a hook on each end of the elastic hair band.

A head covering with a band portion in a shape of a flat strip or loop and a plurality of flat members that are connected to or a part of the band is disclosed. The flat members projects toward a top side of the band. An outer surface of the flat members includes or is made of a material that can be fastened to a certain corresponding type of material. Thereby, the invention provides a foundation for hairpieces having a fastening component that corresponds to a fastening component used in the invention. The flat members as a whole generally cover a scalp of a head but not completely, exposing the scalp through gaps between flat members. Especially, a top portion or a crown of a scalp is generally exposed due to an open-top construction of the head covering. However, as a single hairpiece is fastened to multiple flat members, the hairpiece in turn works to hold the multiple flat members together. When more hairpieces are attached to flat members, the flat members become structurally solid in a shape that conforms to the contour of the scalp. In so doing, hairpieces cover and bridge the gaps between flat members, thereby completely covering a head.

A pre-braided hair extension is configured to be attached to a bunched grouping of hair of a wearer and includes a plurality of hairs weaved into a braided pattern. The hair extension further includes a first end comprising a decorative end of the pre-braided hair extension and a second end distal from the first end, wherein the second end is configured to receive the bunched grouping of hair there through. According to one embodiment, the second end can include a loop. The loop can be configured to receive the bunched grouping of hair there through. The hair ropes weaved into the braided pattern can be configured to permit threading of the bunched grouping through and among the hair ropes.

Various methods are used to attach a hair extension to a user's natural hair, where the hair extension may include a section of hair that is secured together across its width proximate one of its lengthwise ends and is free hanging at its other lengthwise end. According to one such attachment method, a first adhesive is used to attach together a first side of the hair extension's secured end and a first section of the user's natural hair. A second adhesive is used to attach together a second side of the hair extension's secured end and a second section of the user's natural hair. Upon completion of both attachments, the hair extension is positioned between and adhered to the first and second sections of the user's natural hair. Each adhesive may be double-sided adhesive tape and may be pre-attached to its respective side of the hair extension's secured end.

There is provided a wig foundation net 2 worn under a wig, comprising: a first net portion 4 formed with a first elastic net-shaped member 12; and a second net portion 6 connected to the first net portion 4 and formed with a second elastic net-shaped member 14; and a position holder 8 connected to the second net portion 6 and formed with an elastic belt-shaped member 16 including a friction surface 22. At wearing the wig foundation net 2, the first net portion 4, the second net portion 6 and the position holder 8 are located in the order thereof from a top side of the head, and an elastic modulus of the second elastic net-shaped member 14 is higher than an elastic modulus of the first elastic net-shaped member 12.

A method of attaching hair extensions includes sectioning, beading, securing, and stitching hair extensions into a client's hair. Sectioning allows a hairdresser to properly place the hair extension, which creates beads that are unseen. The beads may be placed so as to allow a flexible groove to place the wefts.
