Description

The present invention relates to a wig worn by human beings.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

There are various reasons why people wear wigs. For example, a person may suffer from hair loss due to disease, medication, or hereditary hair loss. Wigs are also worn as an addition to a costume or just to change their style. A wig can be used to accessorize a person's wardrobe, enhance and temporarily alter their appearance.

A problem with regular wigs is the wearer can get bored with the same style and to change that style the wearer must change the wig. Some wig owners cut their wigs to achieve a new style, however wig hair does not grow back causing the wearer to experience disappointment with the inability to achieve the original style, forcing the wearer to purchase another wig. Acquiring wigs in many styles can be expensive for the wearer.

However, Shera—the interchangeable wig has the capability of different styles and would prove less expensive and versatile.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION

The present invention has been made to provide a new wig (full or half), particularly an interchangeable wig.

Shera—the interchangeable wig offers features and advantages prior wigs could not offer.

The wig cap is comprised with multiple stretchable bands sewn or bonded together with strips of stretchable lace or mesh insets forming a stretchable wig cap. The stretchable bands are a looplike material. Wefts of hair are affixed to hooklike strips of material. The hooklike affixed wefts of hair are equally attachable and interchangeable anywhere on the looplike part of the wig cap, fastening the hooklike hair wefts to the looplike cap so the wearer can easily attach and detach the wefts of hair creating any desired style.
