I have very sensitive skin, but was able to wear my wig for the entire day without itching by putting plastic wrap over my scalp than a MIPAN magic silver fishnet 'anti-bacterial' wig cap over the plastic wrap and a gel band as the top layer before the wig. I also put a bobby pin on each side, pinning the wig to the gel band in the front, and it was very secure. Hope this formula helps someone else too! Helped my severe wig itching:

I know how tender the scalp can get. It is a great idea to get an all natural, after-sun spay that usually has aloe and cucumber and other cooling ingredients to soothe and calm the scalp. There is also other alternatives on this post for you to try. Make sure you carry that spray and use it through out the day when you get a chance to take of your wig for a moment. Then when you retire at night use a calming, anti-redness cream for sensitive skin all over your scalp - great ingredients to look for are once again aloe, oat extract (which helps with itch) and calendula to soothe. A great place to look for safe and natural products are baby sections at whole foods stores or other health food stores. Try to avoid anything with chemicals. I would also stay away from head and shoulders, not a good time to use know. I would try California Baby's shampoo for your scalp right now to calm and soother. Let me know how you do.
