Default WIG question

I am a newbie. When I wear my wig, my head itches after a short period of time. Have any of you experienced this and if so, what do you do??? Thanks. Sunny

You need a wig cap, it helps to absorb any sweat, keeps your hair out of your face, and at least for me... when I still wore one. Helps to prevent that creepy-crawly feeling.

Scratch..... just kidding

ditto to what Scruffy said. There's another post on here so you can see what others do. I get two wig caps in a pack at Sally's not much over a dollar and this works well for me.

I could never get the wig caps to fit over my large head (undoubtedly due to my abnormally large BRAIN!). However, I find that cutting the legs off a pair of pantyhose works well. The leg-less panty portion keeps the human hair out of sight and minimizes the itching. It's also a good way to recycle snagged hosiery.

Pickles it's hard for guys to recycle snagged hosiery, because we don't wear them!!!
