A lightweight, portable lateral heat press machine that allows an operator to quickly and economically transfer graphic characters or images using an ink transfer paper process or a sublimation process, or vinyl onto the surface of a garment or an object. The device includes a vertical aligned sliding arm assembly perpendicularly aligned to a horizontally aligned chassis assembly. Attached to the chassis assembly is at least one workstation assembly and a console. The workstation assembly includes a pedestal with an exchangeable, horizontally aligned lower platen that may be selectively rotated and locked in portrait or landscape orientation and a height and pressure adjustment feature. The sliding arm assembly extends upward and forward and includes a heated, upper platen attached to a manually operated plunger. The console contains the controls for operating the heating element inside the upper platen and a timer. In a second embodiment, a second workstation assembly is provided which enables the operator to slide the arm assembly between workstations thereby enabling the operator to setup one workstation as the pressing procedure is being performed on the other.

A headband is disclosed having a U-shaped band constructed of a flexible material, such as metal. The U-shaped band is dimensioned to fit over the head of a user so that the sides of the U-shaped band extend along the sides and behind the ears of the user's head and fictionally, but removably, secure the headband to the user's head. A V-shaped band has two ends that are secured to intermediate points of the U-shaped band so that the V-shaped band extends rearwardly from the U-shaped band and across the top of the head of the user. The hairpiece is then secured to both the U and V-shaped bands so that, with the headband positioned on the user's head, the hair covers areas of balding or partial balding on the user's head.
