To provide a flocked needle capable of reducing insertion resistance when inserted into human skin.SOLUTION: A flocked needle is formed by providing a conical needle tip portion 12 at the tip of a needle trunk portion 11 comprising an elongated round bar and cutting it in a J shape from the projecting end portion of the conical needle tip portion 12 to the needle trunk portion 11 A locking portion 13 for locking the loop-like root portion of the artificial hair is provided. Both sides of the J-shaped locking portion 13 are obliquely cut to provide a flat cut portion 15. By this cutting portion 15, insertion resistance when inserting the brush needle into the human skin can be reduced without weakening the strength of the distal end of the flocked needle.(FIG.【課題】人体皮膚に挿入する場合の挿入抵抗を軽減できる植毛針を提供する。【解決手段】植毛針は、細長い丸棒より成る針基幹部11の先端に円錐形状針先部12を設け、円錐状針先部12の突端部より針基幹部11にかけてJ字状に切削して人造毛のループ状毛根部を繋止するための繋止部13を設ける。そして、J字状繋止部13の両側を斜めに削設して平坦なカット部15を設ける。このカット部15によって、植毛針の先端の強度を弱めないで、人体皮膚に挿入する場合の挿入抵抗を軽減することができる。【選択図】図2
