Wig

Abstract

A wig ( 10, 30 ) is made with artificial hairs ( 12, 13, 32, 33 ) having bending rigidities depending upon portions attached to respective portions. A wig base ( 11, 31 ) is partitioned to a plurality of regions, and the hair ( 12, 32 ) having bending rigidity lower than average natural hair is attached to the periphery ( 11 a ) of the left and right side head portions and the rear head portion and to the total peripheral region ( 31 A), and blended with the wearer's own hair growing around the wig. On the other hand, in the region toward the center of the wig base ( 11, 31 ), the hair ( 13, 33 ) having bending rigidity of the same level as natural hair is attached. The artificial hair ( 12, 13, 32, 33 ) has the pre-determined length and curl diameter depending upon respective regions, and especially, the hair ( 13 ) to be attached to the peripheral portion ( 11 a ) and the hair ( 33 ) to be attached to the total peripheral region ( 31 A) have the curl diameter and/or length of substantially the same level as the hair growing on the wearer's scalp.

1 . A wig comprising a wig base and hair attached to said wig base, characterized in that:
 the hair attached to at least a periphery of said wig base has bending rigidity lower than natural hair.   
     
     
         2 . A wig comprising a wig base and hair attached to said wig base, characterized in that:
 said wig base is partitioned to a plurality of regions including a periphery of a left and right side head portion and a periphery of a rear head portion,   the hairs attached to the partitioned regions of said wig base have bending rigidities pre-determined for the respective regions, and   the hairs attached to said periphery have bending rigidities lower than natural hair.   
     
     
         3 . The wig as set forth in  claim 2 , characterized in that:
 in the region closer to a top portion as the center region of said wig base among the partitioned regions of said wig base, the hair of higher bending rigidity than the hair attached in said periphery is attached.   
     
     
         4 . The wig as set forth in  claim 2 , characterized in that:
 said wig base is partitioned including at least a top portion as the center region of the wig base, said periphery, and an intermediate region zoned between said top portion and said periphery along said periphery,   the hair attached to said top portion has bending rigidity of substantially the same level as natural hair,   the hair attached to said periphery has bending rigidity lower than natural hair, and   the hair having bending rigidity of substantially the same level as natural hair and the hair having bending rigidity lower than natural hair are mixed and attached to said intermediate region.   
     
     
         5 . The wig as set forth in  claim 2 , characterized in that:
 the hairs attached to the partitioned regions of said wig base have curl diameters and/or lengths pre-determined for the respective regions, and   the hairs attached to said peripheries have curl diameters and/or lengths of substantially the same level as the wearer's own hair growing on the scalp.   
     
     
         6 . A wig comprising a wig base and hair attached to said wig base, characterized in that:
 said wig base is partitioned to a plurality of regions including the total peripheral portion comprising a periphery of a forehead portion, a periphery of a left and right side head portion, and a periphery of a rear head portion,   the hairs attached to the partitioned regions of said wig base have bending rigidities pre-determined for the respective regions, and   the hairs attached to said total peripheral portion have bending rigidities lower than natural hair.   
     
     
         7 . The wig as set forth in  claim 6 , characterized in that:
 said wig base is partitioned including a top portion as the center region of the wig base, the total peripheral portion comprising the periphery of the forehead portion, the periphery of the left and right side head portion, and the periphery of a rear head portion, and an intermediate region zoned between said top portion and said total peripheral portion along said total peripheral portion,   the hair attached to said top portion has bending rigidity of substantially the same level as natural hair,   the hair attached to said total peripheral portion has bending rigidity lower than natural hair, and   the hair having bending rigidity of substantially the same level as natural hair and the hair having bending rigidity lower than natural hair are mixed and attached to said intermediate region.   
     
     
         8 . The wig as set forth in  claim 6 , characterized in that:
 the hairs attached to the partitioned regions of said wig base have curl diameters and/or lengths pre-determined for the respective regions, and   the hairs attached to said total peripheral portion has a curl diameter and/or length of substantially the same level as the wearer's own hair growing on the scalp.   
     
     
         9 . The wig as set forth in  claim 1  or  2 , characterized in that:
 said hair has a sheath/core structure comprising a core portion and a sheath portion covering said core portion,   said core portion is made of a polyamide resin, said sheath portion is made of a polyamide resin having lower rigidity than said core portion, and bending rigidity is controlled by the mass ratio of said sheath portion and said core portion.   
     
     
         10 . The wig as set forth in  claim 1  or  2 , characterized in that:
 said hair is made by mixing a first artificial hair made of a polyamide resin and a second artificial hair made of a polyester resin in the pre-determined ratio,   said first artificial hair has a sheath/core structure comprising a core portion and a sheath portion covering said core portion,   said core portion is made of a polyamide resin, said sheath portion is made of a polyamide resin having lower rigidity than said core portion, and bending rigidity is controlled by the mass ratio of said sheath portion and said core portion.   
     
     
         11 . The wig as set forth in  claim 6 , characterized in that:
 said hair has a sheath/core structure comprising a core portion and a sheath portion covering said core portion,   said core portion is made of a polyamide resin, said sheath portion is made of a polyamide resin having lower rigidity than said core portion, and bending rigidity is controlled by the mass ratio of said sheath portion and said core portion.   
     
     
         12 . The wig as set forth in  claim 6 , characterized in that:
 said hair is made by mixing a first artificial hair made of a polyamide resin and a second artificial hair made of a polyester resin in the pre-determined ratio,   said first artificial hair has a sheath/core structure comprising a core portion and a sheath portion covering said core portion,   said core portion is made of a polyamide resin, said sheath portion is made of a polyamide resin having lower rigidity than said core portion, and bending rigidity is controlled by the mass ratio of said sheath portion and said core portion.
