- Wear a wig cap before wearing your wig. The wig cap serves as a protective barrier between the wig and the scalp and can help to better hold the wig in place. The wig cap also stops sweat and excess grease from the natural hair transferring onto the wig, which prevents the wig from smelling and needing more frequent washing.
