A core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair includes a core part and a sheath part. The core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair has a flat two-lobed cross sectional shape or an elliptical cross sectional shape, and has a core-to-sheath area ratio of core:sheath=3:7 to 8:2 in a fiber cross section. The sheath part contains a polyamide-based resin composition containing a polyamide-based resin. The core part has a modified flat two-lobed cross sectional shape or a modified elliptical cross sectional shape including a pair of protrusions protruding from the center side toward the outer circumferential side along a minor axis direction of the fiber cross section. A core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair having a touch close to that of human hair, an excellent combing property, and a good curl setting property, a hair ornament product including the same, and a method for producing the same are provided.

A core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair has a core-sheath structure including a core and a sheath covering the core. The core is composed of a core resin composition containing a polyester-based resin, and the sheath is composed of a sheath resin composition containing a polyamide-based resin. The core resin composition contains a bromine-based flame retardant and a flame retardant auxiliary. The sheath resin composition contains a phosphorus-based flame retardant. The phosphorus-based flame retardant contains at least one selected from the group consisting of a zinc phosphinate and a condensed phosphate ester compound.

A continuous strand includes a pencil normal (PN) section, two first pencil tapering (PT) sections, two second PT sections, and two pencil connection (PC) sections. The pencil normal (PN) section extends along a longitudinal direction thereof and having a first cross-sectional area of a constant size. The two first pencil tapering (PT) sections are tapered in such a way that cross-sectional areas decrease. Two second PT sections are tapered in such a way that the decreased cross-sectional areas increase again. The two pencil connection (PC) sections connect a first PT section and a second PT section that are adjacent to each other, and have a second cross-sectional area of a constant size. The continuous strand may implement a multi step-pencil tapering (MS-PT) effect that presents significantly improved aesthetic characteristics for a wig, without resorting to a labor-intensive manual operation.

A surface covering for use as a moss covering or patch of grass via application to a surface or substrate. The surface covering provides a decorative and durable and easily maintained surface covering. The covering is fabricated using groups of fibers, such as metallic, plastic, or other material fibers, e.g., stainless steel fibers or strands available commercially as steel wool or the like. The fibers or strands provide a core of a body of each blade or piece of the surface covering, which is useful to replicate a blade of grass or moss or to mimic a strand of hair. Each body of the strands further includes an outer layer or coating, which can be formed by painting, e.g., with an epoxy or other useful material that may be colored, the mesh of metal fibers to provide a durable body with a desired look and feel.

Provided are a changeable wig in which textures thereof are transformed by performing a heat treatment of a using wig and a method for transforming a wig.
