## Abstract

An exemplary wig grip apparatus includes a first securement member, a second securement member and a mesh element. The securement members are comprised of a flexible fabric. The mesh element is transparent and affixed to inboard portions of the securement elements. The outboard portions may be configured to be placed into releasable gripping engagement with one another by way of mutually-engageable complementary fastener elements. The securement members each include a forward edge and an opposing rearward edge. The mesh element may include a frontal segment having a forward periphery. The forward periphery is preferably in alignment with the forward edges. The mesh element may include a parting-line segment extending oppositely of the forward periphery. The width of the frontal segment may be greater than the corresponding width of the parting-line segment. Moreover, the parting-line segment may include a rearward periphery in alignment with the rearward edges.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method of using a wig grip apparatus for facilitating enhanced securement of a hairpiece to the head of a wearer, the method comprising:
providing a wig grip apparatus comprising
(a) a first securement member comprised of a velvet or velour and having a first outboard portion and a first inboard portion disposed oppositely of one another;
(b) a second securement member comprised of a velvet or velour and having a second outboard portion and a second inboard portion disposed oppositely of one another; and
(c) a mesh element being transparent and affixed to the first inboard portion and the second inboard portion, wherein the mesh element includes a forward periphery and the wig grip apparatus terminates at the forward periphery;
securing the wig grip apparatus to the head of the wearer; and
applying a hairpiece having a foundation to the head, whereby the wig grip apparatus is disposed between the head and the foundation.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A method as defined in claim 1, wherein the step of securing results in the wig grip apparatus encircling the head of the wearer.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the mesh element is comprised of a nylon mesh fabric.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

A method as defined in claim 3 wherein the nylon mesh fabric is hexagonal.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A method as defined in claim 1 wherein
(a) the securement members each include a forward edge and an opposing rearward edge; and
(b) the forward periphery is in alignment with the forward edges.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

A method as defined in claim 5 wherein the forward periphery and the forward edges collectively follow a non-linear forward pathway.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

A method as defined in claim 5 wherein the mesh element includes
(a) a frontal segment having the forward periphery and a frontal segment width; and
(b) a parting-line segment extending oppositely of the forward periphery and having a parting-line segment width defined in parallel with the frontal segment width, the frontal segment width being greater than the parting line segment width.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

A method as defined in claim 7 wherein
(a) the parting-line segment includes a rearward periphery; and
(b) the rearward periphery is in alignment with the rearward edges.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

A method as defined in claim 8 wherein the rearward periphery and the rearward edges collectively follow a non-linear rearward pathway.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the mesh element is T-shaped.
