A head-protecting airbag device includes an airbag cover mounted on the body of a vehicle for covering a folded airbag. The airbag cover includes an airbag cover body and a clip portion protruding from the back side of the airbag cover body. The clip portion is inserted into a retaining of the vehicle body and is retained by the vehicle body. The clip portion can establish two states: a first retaining state, in which the clip portion is so unextractably retained in the retaining hole that the clip portion cannot be pulled from the body; and a second retaining state, in which the clip portion is inserted farther into the retaining hole compared to the first retaining state and is extractably retained to permit extraction of the clip portion from the body. The head-protecting airbag device can firmly mount the airbag cover to and easily dismount the airbag cover from the vehicle body.
