1. A wig fitting-dressing-cleaning template-shield, comprising:
an unshrunken hood made from a see-through flexible shrinkable barrier sheet material having the properties of exhibiting bidirectional shrinkage upon the application of a moderate and safe level of heated air, an approximate 2:1 shrink ratio, a moderate and safe shrink force, and shape memory sufficient to return to shrunken shape after being slightly stretched during removal and replacement; where said unshrunken hood has the general configuration of a sack or bag closed at one end and open at an opposite end; where said unshrunken hood has dimensions adapted to fit over a large person's head; where said unshrunken hood is adapted to be cut or torn to create a breathing opening for a person; where said unshrunken hood is adapted to be placed over the head of a person to be fitted for a wig, after said breathing opening is created, and subsequently shrunken by application of heated air, shrinking said unshrunken hood into a shape-conforming envelope retaining the shape of the person's head and hair profile; where said shape-conforming envelope made from said see-through material is adapted to allow visual location of a person's hairline and marking of the hairline upon said shape-conforming envelope; where said unshrunken hood is further adapted to be placed over a wig block and subsequently shrunken by application of heated air, shrinking said unshrunken hood into a shape-conforming envelope protecting the wig block from damage and staining by water and substances and solvents used in wig making, dressing, and cleaning; where said wig fitting-dressing-cleaning template-shield is adapted to retain and transmit to a wig maker the dimensions and relative locations of the head shape, hair profile, and hairline of a person to be fitted for a wig, in the form of said shape-conforming envelope, and to protect the wig block from damage and staining. |
