Most of the head scarfs or headbands are used for protecting the head or hair from rain, wind, dirt, cold, warmth, etc. Sometimes they also stand out as a fashionable accessory or possess religious recognition. This invention, “Head covering garment” (US4173042) was patented on 6th November 1979 in the USPTO, which was invented by Henrietta Krzewinski-Morris.
The present garment is made from a flexible, durable material where the cap can be folded into a flat shape. When the wearer uses it, he simply has to slip it over his or her head and adjusts the lower edge for a comfortable fit over the forehead.
The present invention, being a head covering is inexpensive and easily made, which fits all head sizes thereby eliminating the use of a conventional elastic headband. It may also be used to protect the hair of the wearer during a wide variety of everyday activities but is especially suited for use as a head covering for personnel in the medical and surgical fields.
