Snap clip hair supplements and method of manufacture
Abstract
The Snap Clip Hair Supplement is designed to increase the volume
of hair to compensate for hair loss on top of the head and thinning
of the hair. There are two snap clips under the hairpiece that
fasten onto natural hair so the hair supplement blends with natural
hair. The hair supplement includes hair wefts that are intertwined
to simulate the natural part of hair on top of the head. There are
four fashions of the Snap Clip Hair Supplement: Natural Look,
Natural Look with Bangs, Side Part, and Highlights. All of the
claimed hair supplements are worn on top of natural hair and can be
independently managed by an individual without professional
assistance.

Claims
1. The Snap Clip Hair Supplement provides a novel and much needed
product for persons who are suffering from hair loss on the crown
of the head. This product is unique as the end user gently slides
the snap clips onto the crown of the head over existing hair
without professional assistance. The snap clips engage to conform
with the curve of the head and hair used for fabrication is
commercially available in many styles and colors to personalize.
This product is fabricated by the process of sewing commercially
available artificial or human hair underneath and onto a base nylon
netting. Clusters of hair are pulled from under the netting to lay
on top of the netting. Thus, the netting is hidden and the hair is
intertwined to simulate the natural part of hair while adding
volume to existing hair. These supplements may also be
desired--irregardless of experiencing hair loss--by a user wanting
to add volume or color highlights without chemical treatments.
2. The process of utilizing commercially available wefts of
artificial or human hair in which the seams of the hair wefts are
sewn by machine and by hand onto a base nylon netting and the hair
of the hair wefts is pulled through holes of the netting to cover
the base and seams to duplicate the appearance of natural hair.
Claim 2 is a Natural Look Fashion that has a simulated part on the
crown of the head, hair radiates from the part onto the right,
left, and back of the head.
3. The process of utilizing commercially available wefts of
artificial or human hair in which the seams of the hair wefts are
sewn by machine and by hand onto a base nylon netting and the hair
of the hair wefts is pulled through holes of the netting to cover
the base and seams to duplicate the appearance of natural hair.
Claim 3 is a Natural Look Fashion with Bangs that has a simulated
part on the crown of the head and hair radiates from the part onto
the right, left, and back of the head, and affords additional bangs
at the front of the hair supplement.
4. The process of utilizing commercially available wefts of
artificial or human hair in which the seams of the hair wefts are
sewn by machine and by hand onto a base nylon netting and the hair
of the hair wefts is pulled through holes of the netting to cover
the base and seams to duplicate the appearance of natural hair.
Claim 4 is a Side Part Fashion that has a simulated part on either
the left or right side of the crown to allow the appearance of hair
that is parted to the side rather than down the middle of the head.
Hair radiates across the crown, down the right, left, and back side
of the head.
5. The process of utilizing commercially available wefts of
artificial or human hair in which the seams of the hair wefts are
sewn by machine and by hand onto a base nylon netting and the hair
of the hair wefts is pulled through holes of the netting to cover
the base and seams to duplicate the appearance of natural hair.
Claim 5 is a Highlights Fashion that has a simulated part and
radiates from the crown onto the right, left, and back side of the
head. This style is designed to offer the end user an option of
adding supplemental hair that may be of different or lighter color
than one's natural hair--in order to provide a highlight effect.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] This invention was as a result of my personal experience
with trying to address the issue of hair loss. I was unable to find
commercially available products that were feasible for my thin
hair. Frustrated with a lack of products, I experimented
fabrication with various media and materials, this method was most
natural-looking, easy care, and simple to apply. The Snap Clip Hair
Supplement pertains to aesthetic purposes for people who may have
naturally thin hair, are experiencing hair loss of varied etiology,
or desire highlight color without chemical treatments. If one has
only one area of balding hair -a bald spot- an entire wig may not
be desired. Additionally, if one's hair is simply "thin,"
supplementing natural hair may be desired rather than covering the
head with a cap and the hair with a wig.
[0003] The Snap Clip Hair Supplements are designed to complement
one's natural hair. The Snap Clip Hair Supplement partially covers
the crown of the head and supplements hair by blending in with
one's natural hair and adds volume. The supplements may be
fabricated from a wide variety of commercially available human hair
or synthetic hair-selection is based upon which qualities of either
hair best meets one's needs. The majority of the prior art for hair
supplements are attached underneath the hair on the head, involve
adhesives, bind hair with clipping hair strands, and need a
technician or cosmetology professional to apply and remove.
[0004] The Snap Clip Hair Supplement attaches to the crown of the
head, does not require use of adhesives, does not get sewn or
clipped into hair, does not require pulling natural hair through
the supplement, and does not require a technician or cosmetologist
for application or removal. The base of this supplement is a
permeable netting to promote air flow to limit heat generation. The
Snap Clip Hair Supplement is designed to be applied and removed
daily by an individual. Care of the supplements simply require for
an individual to wash with shampoo, conditioner may be used, rinse,
and hang to dry. The supplements may be applied prior to styling,of
hair and styled simultaneously with natural hair. The supplements
may be re-used daily for the life of the hair. (Synthetic hair has
less wear life and styling limitations that commercially available
human hair does not.)
