Claims18
An adjustable headband for securing a wig on a user's head, the adjustable headband comprising:
- an exterior panel that extends along a length of the headband, the exterior panel comprising a crushed velvet or velour material that has a pile oriented toward a lateral edge of the headband;
- an interior panel that forms an opening on an interior side of the headband, the opening extending longitudinally along the length of the headband;
- an intermediate layer disposed between the exterior panel and the interior panel, the intermediate layer connected to at least the interior panel by stitching that extends along a perimeter of the opening,
- wherein the exterior panel is connected to the interior panel by at least a first pattern of stitching that extends along a perimeter of the headband and a second pattern of stitching that extends from the perimeter of the headband to the perimeter of the opening;
- a silicone member coupled to the intermediate layer and positioned to be exposed through the opening on the interior side of the headband with the silicone member extending longitudinally along the length of the headband, wherein an edge of the intermediate layer extends beyond an edge of the silicone member such that the silicone member is positioned without the stitching that extends along a perimeter of the opening extending into the silicone member;
- and
- one or more adjustable fasteners configured to detachably couple a first end of the headband to a second end of the headband in different relative positions to adjust a fit of the headband on the user's head.
