The present disclosure relates to wigs, units and hair pieces, and devices for transporting or carrying such wigs, units and hair pieces. More specifically, the instant disclosure relates to a handcrafted case lined with material to carry such wigs, units and hair pieces.
Generally speaking, a wig, also known as a unit or hair piece, is a head or hair accessory made from human hair, animal hair, or synthetic fiber. A wig, unit, or hair piece is designed to be a covering for the head made of real or artificial hair, and is typically worn by people for adornment or by people trying to conceal their baldness, or in England by judges and barristers in courts of law. Some people wear wigs to disguise baldness. A wig may also be used as a less intrusive and less expensive alternative to medical therapies for restoring hair or for a religious reason.
The instant disclosure recognizes the need for transporting and/or storing such wigs, units or hair pieces. Currently, there are no products on the market designed to securely and safely transport and/or store such wigs, units or hair pieces. Wigs, units or hair pieces can be rather delicate and rather costly to fix or replace. In addition, wearers of such wigs, units or hair pieces like to be discreet about their use. As such, there is clearly a need to provide a device designed specifically for transporting and/or storing such wigs, units or hair pieces securely and safely.
The instant disclosure may be designed to address at least certain aspects of the problems or needs discussed above by providing a handcrafted case lined with material to carry wigs, units and/or hair pieces.
The present disclosure may solve the aforementioned limitations of the currently available means or devices for carrying, transporting and/or storing wigs, units or hair pieces, by providing a handcrafted case lined with material to carry wigs, units and hair pieces.

The container device may include a hinged lid on an open top portion. The hinged lid may rotate between a closed position and an option position, where the closed position may seal the open top portion, and the option position may provide access to the open top portion. At least one divider may be on an inside of the container device. The at least one divider may be configured to divide the inside of the case into compartments. Each compartment may be configured to store at least one of the wigs, the units or the hair pieces. A liner material may be on the inside of the container device. The liner material may be configured to protect the wigs, the units, the hair pieces, and combinations thereof, stored in the inside of the container device.
