Wig

Abstract

A hair material for a wig is preliminarily curled and then bound to a wig base to thereby orient the curled hair in a definite direction. A folded part ( 10 c ) of a hair material ( 10 ) is penetrated from one side of a filament ( 15 ) to the other side under a wig base ( 12 ) so that a first loop ( 17 ) is formed in the inner side of the folded part ( 10 c ). A curved part ( 10 d ) is inserted though the first loop ( 17 ) so that a second loop ( 19 ) is formed in the inner side of the curved part ( 10 d ). A part ( 10 b ) of the hair material is inserted through the second loop ( 19 ). Next, the hair material parts ( 10 a , 10 b ) are pulled in directions opposite to each other and tied with the filament ( 15 ) to ( 20 ). Thus, the hair material ( 10 ) is bound to the filament ( 15 ).

1 - 6 . (canceled) 
   
   
       7 . A wig comprising:
 a wig base to be worn to a head; and   a large number of hair materials fixed to the wig base, each being a pair of hair pieces obtained by folding a weft into two,   wherein curls and treatment to improve at least one of texture, smoothness and deep color effect are imparted in advance to the weft before being fixed to the wig base,   wherein the pair of hair pieces is obtained by folding the weft into two at one point so as to orient the curls imparted to the same direction,   wherein a folded portion of the pair of hair pieces is fixed to the wig base while tips of the pair of hair pieces are being oriented to a predetermined direction with respect to the wig base, thereby the curls of the pair of hair pieces are oriented to a predetermined direction after being fixed to the wig base.   
   
   
       8 . The wig according to  claim 7 , wherein the curls of the pair of hair pieces are imparted by a method comprising the steps of:
 applying a first cold permanent liquid to the weft containing a predetermined number of the hair materials in each of a predetermined number of pitches and impregnating a sheet of non-woven fabric with water;   placing the weft on the sheet and combing the weft to thereby uniformly distribute the hair materials on the sheet;   winding the weft and the sheet integrally around a pipe;   keeping them in this state sealed in a bag for a predetermined period of time;   applying a second cold permanent liquid to the hair materials extracted from the bag after the predetermined period of time has elapsed;   winding the weft and the sheet integrally around the pipe;   keeping them in this state for further predetermined period of time; and   washing in water the weft wound off after the further predetermined period of time has elapsed.   
   
   
       9 . The wig according to  claim 7 , wherein the curls of the pair of hair pieces are imparted by a method comprising the steps of:
 applying a conditioner for chemical fibers to the weft containing a predetermined number of the hair materials in each of a predetermined number of pitches;   placing the weft on a sheet of one of non-woven fabric and paper and combing the weft to thereby uniformly distribute the hair materials on the sheet;   winding the weft and the sheet integrally around a pipe; and   heating them in this state for a predetermined period of time.   
   
   
       10 . The wig according to  claim 7 , wherein the curls of the pair of hair pieces are imparted by a method comprising the steps of:
 impregnating the weft containing a predetermined number of the hair materials in each of a predetermined number of pitches and a sheet of non-woven fabric with an aqueous solution of silicon emulsion;   placing the weft on the sheet and combing the weft to thereby uniformly distribute the hair materials on the sheet;   winding the weft and the sheet integrally around a pipe and covering them with an aluminum foil; and   heating them in this state for a predetermined period of time.   
   
   
       11 . The wig according to  claim 7 , wherein the curls of the pair of hair pieces are imparted by a method comprising the steps of:
 immersing the weft containing a predetermined number of the hair materials in each of a predetermined number of pitches and a sheet of non-woven fabric in an aqueous solution of silicon emulsion;   placing the weft on the sheet material and combing the weft to thereby uniformly distribute the hair materials on the sheet material;   winding the weft and the sheet integrally around a pipe and drying them; and   heating them in this state for a predetermined period of time.   
   
   
       12 . The wig according to  claim 11 , wherein the third and fourth steps are replaced with the steps of:
 winding the weft and the sheet integrally around a pipe and covering them with an aluminum foil; and   heating them in this state for a predetermined period of time.
