Wearing a Wig

I have a wig that I wear because I am going through chemotherapy right now for breast cancer. I had to try it on a couple of times before I shaved my hair off and they gave me a little stocking cap to wear over my hair that helped keep it on my head, but I will say that it DEFINITELY fits better now that I don't have any hair. Even with the cap, it would still slip around a little bit. It sticks pretty good to my bald head though! Not sure how this helps you since I'm assuming you want to keep your real hair. I guess I would try the stocking cap. Any wig store should have them or be able to tell you how/where to get them. Hope you find something that works for you!

I am not sure but dont they sell caps for underneath with double side tape or Velcro with it??? Call the wig place and find out.

The wig cap others have mentioned should help quite a bit. I'd also suggest wig clips (they go by different names, but wig shops should have them). They're kind of like those barrettes that you flex to bend open and "snap" closed, but they have a silicone grip on one edge and teeth like a comb to really grip even very short hair. They have holes along one edge as well so they can get sewn into the wig. I'd recommend 2 near the front of the wig. I've used them a lot in theatre to get those wispy hairs most folks have at the nape of their neck to stay in place under a wig cap, as well as for clipping hair pieces on even with really short hair, and they're great.

In theatre we use Spirit Gum

I wore a wig for a few months while in Chemo. I hated it - probably because all my anxiety about my situation came through that one inconvenience.

I never lost all my hair, so one of the wig shops recommended a mesh stocking (like a do-rag) that I wore over my hair and helped the mesh of the wig grip onto my hair better.

It sounds like your wig is very similar to mine (Jon Reneau). Other than having 2 kids 2 and younger occasionally pulling on it, I really didn't have to worry about slipping, etc. when I had the mesh stocking on. I was in sales and was subjected to just about every weather condition until my hair was long enough to go without the wig.

Since you have hair, I'd HIGHLY recommend NOT using tapes, roll-on adhesives, etc. without trying a stocking first. Head bands were useless (the ones you wear under). The stocking cost $1.50, and I only needed 1 from August-December while I wore my wig.
