Headrest for vehicular seat and production method therefor

A method for manufacturing a headrest to be attached to a vehicle seat, the method comprising:

• a step of fixedly attaching a tension member to at least one of a pair of main frame parts constituting a frame, the pair of main frame parts being spaced apart from each other in a first direction and extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction, the tension member including a tension part to extend between the pair of main frame parts;
• a step of setting, in a mold, a cover defining a bag and accommodating the pair of main frame parts and the tension member in the bag;
• a step of forming a pad in such a manner as to enclose the pair of main frame parts and the tension member by injecting a material having fluidity into the bag through a specific portion of the cover that is away from the tension member and faces the tension member in a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction,
• wherein the tension member is in the shape of a strip, and the tension member includes a base made of at least one of Japanese traditional paper, a woven fabric, and a non-woven fabric, and
• in the fixedly attaching step, the tension part is extended over a substantially whole longitudinal region of each of the pair of main frame parts in the second direction.
