I found wigs to be itchy also and couldn't wear them for long. I finally asked a woman at chemo, who always wore a wig how she stood it. She said she put Seabreeze Astringent on her head before putting on her wig. I tried it and it indeed helped, still not completely comfortable but helped...it that doesn't work..there's always the BANANA...sherryg683
