Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a wig for people who have natural hair at the hairline. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, wigs have been designed so that the boundary between the wig and the scalp is less noticeable when the wig is worn. In particular, since the edges of wigs at the hairline in the forehead are noticeable, efforts are made to make the edges of wigs uneven so that the hairline in the forehead does not look unnatural when the wig is worn, for example. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 5411669 [Patent Document 2] Patent No. 6016340 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 4-33620 [Patent Document 4] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 62-114018 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, although making the periphery of the wig uneven can reduce the unnatural look of the hairline at the front of the head, there is a problem in that it is not easy to achieve a natural standing of the hair at the hairline. In particular, people who have their own hair at the hairline on the forehead and sides of the head have a desire to have the wig hair or their own hair stand up naturally around the edges of the wig and maintain that standing state, but this has been difficult to achieve.

[0005] Here, a configuration in which the peripheral edge of a wig is provided with an uneven shape is proposed in Patent Document 1. Specifically, the document discloses a wig consisting of a wig base with a front portion that can reveal a hairline at a specified position on the wearer's forehead, and hair planted on the wig base, in which the front hair is planted so that it oscillates in a wave-like manner between the front edge of the front portion of the wig base and a position recessed inward from this front edge, and that this oscillation is repeated along the front edge, creating a wave pattern. According to this wig, by making the hair at the front hairline wavy, it is possible to prevent the hairline from looking unnatural.

[0006] Patent Document 2 also proposes a configuration in which the peripheral portion of a wig has an uneven shape. Specifically, the wig disclosed has a wavy frontal edge of the wig base, the surrounding area including said edge is hardened with synthetic resin, and at least a portion of the end of the surrounding area on the inside of the base extends further inwardly than 5 mm beyond the bottom of the wavy shape. This wig is designed to prevent the front edge of the head from curling up, warping, or curling away from the scalp, resulting in an unnatural appearance.

[0007] Furthermore, Patent Document 3 also proposes making the peripheral portion of the wig uneven, forming the peripheral edge on the forehead side unevenly to expose one's own hair from the recess, making it possible to mix the own hair with the hair transplanted into the wig. Also, Patent Document 4 proposes a wig using a net with a jagged, uneven portion on the front of the head, which makes the hairline look natural.

[0008] However, although these inventions can reduce the unnatural look at the hairline in the front of the head, they do not enable the hair to stand up naturally at the hairline. Therefore, after extensive research, the inventors have succeeded in creating multiple acute-angled recesses in the areas around the wig's periphery that correspond to the hairline, planting hair on both sides of these recesses, and then crossing and supporting the hair extending from both sides, thereby naturally standing and maintaining the wig's hair and the wearer's own hair. In addition, by fixing a plurality of rings to both side ends of the recess and implanting hair in these rings, it is also possible to give volume to the hair at the hairline.

[0009] On the other hand, the wig of Patent Document 1 has a wavy front part, but hair is planted on both ends of the recess, and the hairs extending from both ends are not crossed and supported. In addition, the wig of Patent Document 2 forms a hardened area on the wavy frontal edge after the hair planting, and hair is planted on both ends of the recess at the frontal edge and is not crossed. In addition, the wig net of Patent Document 3 also does not have hair planted on both ends of the recess at the edge on the forehead side and crossed.

[0010] Furthermore, the wig in Patent Document 4 does not have hair planted on both ends of the concave portion of the jagged uneven portion so that they cross each other. The concave portion is formed by simply cutting the net in order to make the hairline at the front of the head look natural, and even if hair was planted on both ends of the concave portion, it would be difficult to make the hair extending from these ends cross each other and support each other.

[0011] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and has an object to provide a method for manufacturing a wig that is capable of naturally standing and maintaining wig hair and one's own hair at the hairline, and a method for using a wig. [Means for solving the problem]

[0012] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the method for manufacturing a wig of the present invention is a method for manufacturing a wig in which hair is planted on a wig base having an uneven structure on the periphery, in which the uneven structure having a plurality of acute-angled recesses is formed on the hairline portion of the wig base that is located at the hairline of the head, hair is planted on both side ends of the recesses, and the hair extending from both side ends is crossed and mixed with each other.

[0013] In addition, the method for manufacturing a wig of the present invention is preferably a method in which the hairline portion including both side ends of the wig base is reinforced, and then hair is implanted at both side ends. Furthermore, the method for manufacturing a wig of the present invention is preferably a method for obtaining a wig in which the hair extending from the both side ends can be crossed and mixed with the natural hair extending from the head through the recess.

[0014] In addition, the method for manufacturing a wig of the present invention preferably comprises fixing a plurality of rings to both side ends and implanting the hair into the rings and both side ends. Furthermore, the method for manufacturing a wig of the present invention is preferably a method for making a wig for a person who has natural hair growing at the hairline.

[0015] Furthermore, the method of using a wig of the present invention is a method of using a wig in which hair is implanted on a wig base having an uneven structure on the periphery, wherein the uneven structure having a plurality of acute-angled recesses is formed on the hairline portion of the wig base that is located at the hairline of the head, and hair is implanted on both side ends of the recesses, and the hair extending from both side ends is crossed and mixed with each other, and the hair extending from both side ends is crossed and mixed with the user's own hair extending from the head through the recesses. Effect of the Invention

[Figure 4] FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram showing the configuration of a modified wig base used in a wig manufacturing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the method for producing a wig and the method for using a wig of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific contents of the following embodiments.

[0019] The method for manufacturing a wig of this embodiment is a method for manufacturing a wig in which hair is implanted onto a wig base having an uneven structure on the periphery. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the wig base 1 has a first net portion 11, a second net portion 12, a hairline portion 13, and a peripheral reinforcing portion 14 (14').

[0020] The method of manufacturing a wig in this embodiment is characterized in that an uneven structure having multiple acute-angled recesses 131 is formed in the hairline portion 13 located at the hairline of the head on the wig base 1, hair 2 is implanted on both side ends of the recesses 131, and the hair 2 extending from both side ends are crossed and mixed with each other.

[0021] The hairline portion 13 is a region of the periphery of the wig base 1 that is placed at the hairline of the head, such as the frontal or temporal areas. In Fig. 1, two recesses 131 are formed on each side of the hairline 13, but this is not limited thereto, and one recess may be formed on each side of the hairline 13, or the recess 131 may be formed in the center of the hairline 13. The number and arrangement of the recesses 131 in the hairline 13 may be other than those shown in Fig. 1. Furthermore, the shape of the recesses 131 in the hairline 13 is not limited to that shown in Fig. 1, and it is sufficient that multiple recesses 131 with acute angles are formed in the hairline 13.

[0022] If the angle between both end sides of the recess 131 is large, the hairs 2 implanted at both end parts of the recess 131 will be less likely to cross each other. For this reason, the angle between both end sides of the recess 131 is preferably an acute angle, more preferably 30 to 80°, even more preferably 50 to 70°, and particularly preferably about 60°.

[0023] The hair 2 is artificial hair (including hair made of synthetic fibers and processed natural hair) that is implanted in the wig base 1. As shown in FIG. 1, when hairs 2 are implanted at both ends of the recess 131 so as to extend outward from both ends (approximately perpendicular to both ends), the hairs 2 extending from both ends cross each other, so that they can be easily mixed together. This also allows the hairs 2 extending from both side ends to support each other, making it possible to achieve a natural rising appearance.

[0024] In addition, in the method of manufacturing the wig of this embodiment, it is preferable to reinforce the hairline portion 13 including both side ends of the recess 131 in the wig base 1, and then implant hair at both side ends. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable to form a peripheral reinforcing portion 14 at the hairline portion 13 to reinforce the hairline portion 13.

[0025] By using this method for manufacturing the wig of this embodiment, the hair 2 can be more stably fixed to both side ends of the recess 131, and the hair 2 extending from both side ends can be supported against each other more strongly. This makes it easier to achieve and maintain a natural standing state of the hair 2. Furthermore, by forming the peripheral reinforcement portion 14 at the hairline portion 13, it is also possible to prevent the hairline portion 13 from curling up. Although FIG. 1 shows a state in which the hair 2 is implanted in the first net portion 11, the hair 2 may be implanted in the peripheral reinforcing portion .

[0026] 1, it is also preferable to further form a peripheral reinforcing portion 14' at the peripheral portion of the wig base 1 other than the hairline portion 13, thereby reinforcing the entire peripheral portion of the wig base 1. In this way, in the wig manufacturing method of this embodiment, it is possible to easily handle the wig base 1 and to improve the strength of the wig obtained.

[0027] In the wig base 1, the material of the first net portion 11 and the second net portion 12 is not particularly limited, but for example, a resin sheet, a reticulated net member, a mesh net member, etc. can be used. Furthermore, the wig base 1 in the wig manufacturing method of this embodiment is not limited to having the first net portion 11 and the second net portion 12, but may be made of one type of resin sheet or net member, or may be made of more component parts.

[0028] In the example of FIG. 1, it is assumed that a net member having a fine mesh is used as the first net portion 11, and a net member having a larger mesh is used as the second net portion 12. By using a fine mesh net material for the first net part 11 including the hairline part 13 in this manner, the hair 2 planted in the recess 131 can be prevented from rotating in the mesh part, and the hair 2 can be more firmly fixed to the hairline part 13. This makes it easier to make the hair 2 stand naturally, and also makes it possible to maintain that state.

[0029] In the wig base 1, the method of forming the peripheral reinforcement portion 14 (14') is not particularly limited, and it may be formed by hardening the peripheral portion of the wig base 1 with a synthetic resin, or it may be formed by fixing a lace member or other reinforcing member to the peripheral portion of the wig base 1.

[0030] According to the wig manufacturing method of this embodiment, a wig can be obtained in which the hair 2 extending from both side ends of the recess 131 can be crossed and mixed with the user's own hair 5 extending from the head 4 through the recess 131, as shown in Figure 2. In other words, in the wig obtained by this embodiment, not only does the hair 2 extending from both side ends of the recess 131 cross and mix with each other, but the natural hair 5 growing on the head 4 can also cross and mix with the hair 2 through the recess 131.

[0031] As a result, the hair 2 extending from both ends can be more strongly supported together with the natural hair 5, making it easier to achieve a natural standing of the hair 2 and the natural hair 5 and to maintain that state. In this way, when the wearer has own hair 5 on his / her head 4, the wig obtained by this embodiment can mix the hair 2 and the wearer's own hair 5 and make them stand up, so the manufacturing method of the wig of this embodiment is preferably for use by a person who has own hair growing at the hairline.

[0032] An example of a wig manufactured by the wig manufacturing method of this embodiment is shown in Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a view of the back side (the side that comes into contact with the head) of the obtained wig 3. Hair 2 is planted over the entire outer surface of the wig base 1, and one first attachment part 15 (hook and loop fastener) and three second attachment parts 16 (wig stoppers) are attached to the inner surface of the wig base 1 for fixing the wig to the natural hair of the head.

[0033] The wig 3 obtained by the wig manufacturing method of this embodiment can be attached to the natural hair of the wearer's head by means of the first attachment portion 15 and the second attachment portion 16. It goes without saying that the method of attaching the wig 3 to the wearer's head is not limited to this, and it is possible to use only one of these attachment portions, change the number of attachment portions, or use other attachment portions for attachment. FIG. 3 also shows how the hairs 2 extending from both side ends of the recess 131 at the hairline of the wig 3 cross and mix with each other.

[0034] Next, a modified example of the wig base used in the method for producing a wig of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the figure, configurations similar to those in FIG. 1 are indicated with the same reference numerals with the addition of "a," and an example is shown in which hairs 2 are implanted in some of the multiple rings fixed to both side ends of the recess 131a.

[0035] That is, in the method for manufacturing a wig of this embodiment, it is also preferable to fix a plurality of rings to both side ends of the recess 131a, and implant the hair 2 in the rings and both side ends. According to this embodiment, by planting hair 2 on both side ends of the recess 131a and also in these rings, the amount of planted hair can be increased, and it is possible to give volume to the hair 2 at the hairline 13a.

[0036] The method of using the wig of this embodiment is a method of using a wig in which hair is planted on a wig base 1 having an uneven structure on the periphery, as shown in Figure 2, and the wig base 1 has an uneven structure with multiple acute-angled recesses 131 formed in the hairline portion 13 located at the hairline of the head 4, and hair 2 is planted on both side ends of the recesses 131, and the hair 2 extending from both side ends is crossed and mixed with each other, and the hair 2 extending from both side ends is crossed and mixed with the user's own hair 5 extending from the head 4 via the recesses 131.

[0037] According to this method of using the wig of this embodiment, the hair 2 extending from both ends and the natural hair 5 extending from the head 4 can be mixed together, so that the hairs support each other to achieve and maintain a natural rise.

[0038] As described above, according to the method for manufacturing a wig and the method for using a wig of this embodiment, it is possible to naturally keep wig hair and one's own hair standing up at the hairline.

[0039] The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the present invention. For example, although the present embodiment is described using a full head wig, it is possible to modify the present invention as appropriate, such as applying it to a partial wig for the frontal or temporal parts of the head. [Industrial Applicability]

[0040] The present invention can be suitably used in the production of voluminous wigs, for example. [Explanation of symbols]
