Abstract

An artifical hair for implantation comprising a loop and a hair root portion is prepared by forming a loop by winding a synthetic resin monofilament around a bar shaped jig, forming an S-twisted part by twining a first end of the monofilament around the second end of the monofilament and twisting the configuration once to form an S shape at the foot at the loop, and fusion bonding the S-twisted part of the monofilament only at a region between two points where both filaments intersect each other.
