2. Description of the Related Art At meetings where people gather, such as parties, banquets, secondary parties, and disco, the atmosphere of the place is enhanced by using decorative wigs. As the decorative wig, there is one in which hair (for example, made of synthetic resin) is colored with a colorful color such as red, yellow, green, gold, or silver.
In addition, there is a hair in which ornaments having a light reflection effect are scattered on colored hair.

[0003]

By the way, the conventional decorative wig can obtain a high decorative effect in a place where the lighting is bright. For example, the lighting of a venue such as a concert hall or a stage of a fashion show is turned off to reduce the atmosphere. In a place that excites you, you cannot expect a great decorative effect. In addition, even if the conventional decorative wig is excellent in color and design, the appearance design does not change much, so that it is not possible to obtain a decorative effect with a lot of movement and change.

[0004] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and for example, in a concert hall, a stage of a fashion show, or a place where an illuminating effect such as a disco is used, a decorative effect with a strong impression and a variety of effects can be obtained.

When the decorative wig of the present invention is worn, it looks as if the hair is emitting light, so that a sufficient decorative effect can be expected even in a place where lighting is turned off. In addition, since the optical fiber swings with the shaking of the hair and the light emitting position moves, a decorative effect with a change can be obtained.

Here, in the decorative wig of the present invention, L
A light shielding means is provided between the ED and the end face of the optical fiber for intermittently blocking the light emitted from the LED from traveling to the end face of the optical fiber, and the light shielding means is operated according to the shaking (vibration) of the light emitting section. With such a configuration, the light emission of the optical fiber flashes every time the person wearing the decorative wig moves or moves his / her head, so that a variety of interesting decorative effects can be obtained. Further, if a blinking means for intermittently emitting an LED is provided, a similar decorative effect can be obtained.

Further, a coloring means is provided between the LED and the end face of the optical fiber for selectively coloring the light from the LED toward the fiber end face, and the coloring means is provided in accordance with the shaking (vibration) of the light emitting section. If you configure it to work,
Each time the person wearing the decorative wig moves or moves his head, the color of the light emitted from the optical fiber changes.
A variety of interesting decoration effects can be obtained.

In the decorative wig of the present invention, if an optical fiber is used that guides light incident on one end face of the fiber to the other end and emits the light from both the other end face and the fiber side face, it is attached to the hair. Since the entire optical fiber appears to emit light, a decorative effect different from the case where only the end face of the fiber emits light can be obtained.

[0010] In addition, if the optical fiber whose side is colored is used, a hairstyle in which the hair is partially dyed, that is, a so-called mesh-like feeling can be produced. In fashion also improves. Furthermore, if an optical fiber that is formed in a curl shape or a wave shape in addition to a straight fiber is prepared, a more unique hairstyle can be enjoyed.
