Abstract
A headrest airbag for a vehicle is provided. The headrest airbag has an airbag cushion that is deployed forward from a headrest to surround an occupant'"'"'s head which minimizes the occupant'"'"'s head movement by holding the occupant'"'"'s head in advance thus protecting the occupant'"'"'s head against impact. Further, a rear cushion is deployed backward from the headrest, whereby both a front seat occupant and a rear seat occupant are safely protected from impact by preventing an injury caused when the rear seat occupant hits the front seat.
