Flexible hair extension with form retention capability
A flexible hair extension includes an attachment assembly and a plurality of hairs. Each hair within the plurality of hairs is attached to the attachment assembly. The attachment assembly is flexible and can be easily deformed by hands into any geometric shape desired by the user. The attachment assembly retains the new form against gravity of the attachment assembly and the plurality of hairs. The new form can also be easily deformed by hands into another form. The attachment assembly can be a pair of wires twisted together with the plurality of hairs held between the pair of wires. The attachment assembly is adapted to be attached to the user's head using a pair of hair clips on two ends of the attachment assembly.
Method for attaching hair extensions
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. Securing the wefts includes a pattern of stitching that places a stitch at a side, middle, opposite side, and between the beads. This stitching pattern promotes secure wefts as well as prevents damage to scalp and hair.
Hair extensions, methods of making, and methods of using the same
A hair extension, method for making a hair extension, and method of using a hair extension is provided that is intended to be less noticeable when worn by a wearer or not easily detectable by others if or when exposed. In one embodiment, a plurality of hairs are attached to a second substrate such that the hair extension is less noticeable while in use. In one example, a weft may be attached to the second substrate to add additional volume and/or length of hair and may be covered by a plurality of hairs extending from the second substrate. In another example, a portion of the hairs attached to the second substrate may be folded over a distal edge of the second substrate to make the hair extension less noticeable. Alternatively, a portion of the hairs attached to the second substrate may be crocheted through a wearer's anchor braid and folded over the hair extension to make the hair extension less noticeable.
Hair addition
Disclosed herein is a hair addition for adding volume, texture, and density to the side of a user's head and hairline. The hair addition, in one embodiment, includes two or more wires to which wefts of hair are attached. The hair addition further includes one or more double layer portions of hair and one or more single layer portions of hair. In another embodiment, the hair addition includes one or more wires to which wefts of hair are attached. At least some of the wefts of hair are slidable along the one or more wires. The hair addition further includes elastic cordage connecting to the one or more wires one each end of the one or more wires and an intermediate connector connecting the wires and the elastic cordage.
Wig foundation net
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.
SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SUPPLEMENTING HUMAN HAIR VOLUME
The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for supplementing human hair. A system and method includes a wire coupled to an existing hair, wherein the wire pulls the existing hair through a funnel and microtube. A sleeve with supplemental hairs is positioned on the microtube and configured to be coupled to the existing hair. After the existing hair passes through the microtube, the wire, funnel, and microtube are removed, thus leaving the supplemental hairs coupled to the existing hair via the sleeve. An alternative system and method includes one or more tools for installing two halves of a sleeve with supplemental hairs extending therefrom onto a strand of existing hair. The one or more tools are configured to guide the strand of existing hair into engagement with the halves of the sleeve, thus securing the sleeve and the supplemental hairs on the strand of existing hair.
ARTIFICIAL HAIR, ARTIFICIAL HAIR UNIT, AND METHOD FOR ATTACHING ARTIFICIAL HAIR
Provided are an artificial hair and an artificial hair unit that are easier to attach to a head of a user, a wig cap, or the like, and a method for attaching the artificial hair. The present invention provides a configuration including at least two fiber groups and an attachment part having a plurality of annular parts. The two fiber groups spread at least in a first direction, where the attachment part extends in the first direction and is sandwiched between the two fiber groups and sewn onto the two fiber groups, and where the plurality of annular parts are exposed to an outside from between the two fiber groups.
Open-top hair cap with fasteners for hair extension
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.
EXTENSION APPARATUS FOR ARTIFICIAL HAIR IMPLANTS
Extension devices for attaching hair extension elements to artificial hair elements that protrude from a subcutaneously implanted hair implant anchor body. One extension device involves a cylindrical structure having respective cavities on opposing ends. One cavity receives the distal end of the artificial hair element while the other cavity receives the hair extension therein. Another extension device involves a hair extension element forming a first portion of the device while a second opposite portion includes a projection that is received inside a hollow interior of the artificial hair element. A third extension device involves a core having a hair extension element projecting from one side of the core while a single cavity is located on a second side, opposite the one side, and which receives the distal end of the artificial implanted hair element therein. The hair extension may comprise ancillary hair elements and bud structures. Ornamental structures may be included on the distal ends of the hair extension element.
