Abstract
A method and device for a hair enhancement device. The device may include a peripheral member sized to fit a rear portion of a human head and comprised of a flexible, non-elastic material. The periphery may include a longitudinal member coupled thereto to bisect the periphery and define an upper portion and lower portion of the hair enhancement device. Diagonal members may be coupled between the longitudinal member and the circular member distal from the longitudinal member to subdivide the device into geometric regions. Wefts of hair may be connected to the longitudinal and/or diagonal members and, possibly the peripheral member. A protective sleeve may be sewn over a foundation of the device. The hair of a wearer is drawn through the geometric regions for blending with the wefts of hair.
Claims18
A device comprising:
- a foundation comprising:
- a generally peripheral member conformable to a substantially horseshoe shape with a heel having a first end defined by a first corner and a second end defined by a different second corner and sized to be worn on less than an entire portion of a scalp of a human head and enclose an occipital portion and a parietal portion of the human head;
- a longitudinal member coupled to the peripheral member at one point and at another different point that bisects the peripheral member and defines a first portion and a second different portion of the peripheral member;
- a plurality of diagonal members each respectively coupled to the longitudinal member and the peripheral member distal from the longitudinal member,
- wherein, when the peripheral member is worn on a head of a wearer in such a manner to enclose the occipital portion and the parietal portion, the longitudinal member extends laterally between ears of the wearer, and the plurality of diagonal members divide the first portion and the second portion into a plurality of geometric regions, the geometric regions of the second portion to overlay the occipital portion and one of the plurality of diagonal members in the second portion is coupled to the first corner of the peripheral member and at least another of the plurality of diagonal members in the second portion is coupled to the second corner of the peripheral member, each of the geometric regions of a dimension suitable to allow natural hair of a wearer of the foundation to be drawn through the geometric regions;
- and
- a plurality of wefts of hair coupled to the plurality of diagonal members.
