Abstract

The present invention relates to a band-type hairpiece. Nipping parts are formed through pressing in an upper resilient side of a base frame of a wig clip, and at the same time, a tip of each of the nipping parts is constructed to be caught by two adjacent knots of sewing thread with which strands of false hair are sewn. Thus, the amount of resilient steel sheet consumed for fabricating a wig clip is reduced and the wig clip is prevented from coming out from the false hair. Alternatively, roll-fitting parts are formed through pressing in an upper resilient side of a base frame of a wig clip, and an end of a bundle of false hair of the roll-type hairpiece, which is fixed using an adhesive, is fixedly fitted into each of the roll-fitting parts. Thus, an operation for connecting the roll-type hairpiece to user's hair is simplified and a user who intends to use a roll-type hairpiece can fix the roll-type hairpiece to his/her own hair by himself/herself, whereby he/she can connect the roll-type hairpiece to his/her hair without going to a beauty salon or receiving help from other people.

Claims
