Abstract

An apparatus for holding the hair and also the headwear stationary consists of a headwear, at least one comb piece, and an attachment mechanism. The headwear is made of a soft fabric material which can also be moisture absorbent. An elastic material allows the headwear to be worn conveniently. When the headwear is worn, the at least one comb piece secures the headwear with the user's hair. In order to do so, the at least one comb piece is attached to the headwear with the attachment mechanism. More specifically, a shaft of the at least one comb piece is attached to an inner annular surface of the headwear. Resultantly, the at least one comb piece will be positioned in between a top edge and a bottom edge of the headwear.

Claims

 the shaft being pressed against the plurality of loops. 
 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus for holding the hair and the headwear stationary as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 the attachment mechanism comprises a first fastener and a second fastener; 
 the first fastener being mounted onto the inner annular surface; 
 the second fastener being mounted on the shaft; and 
 the first fastener and the second fastener being engaged to each other. 
 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus for holding the hair and the headwear stationary as claimed in  claim 1  comprises:
 an elastic material; and 
 the elastic material being integrated throughout the headwear. 
 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus for holding the hair and the headwear stationary as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one comb piece is made of a plastic material. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus for holding the hair and the headwear stationary as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the headwear is made of a moisture absorbent material. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus for holding the hair and the headwear stationary as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the headwear is made of a soft fabric material. 
     
     
         12 . An apparatus for holding the hair and the headwear stationary comprises:
