The attachment has a pair of free ends and male and female snap fastener components respectively located near either free end. Attached to the flexible band are a plurality of hair strands and a pair of complementary snap fastener components mated to the snap fastener components of the attachment. This arrangement allows the hair strands to be selectively coupled to the attachment. The attachment can also include a plurality of inwardly projecting comb-like tangs. The comb-like tangs prevent the hairpiece from being easily displaced after being positioned on the wearer's head. A method of attaching the hairpiece to existing hair is also provided.
