There are several possible reasons. Sometimes, wigs are made with materials that are heavy or uncomfortable when worn for a long period of time; wigs made with synthetic hair and lighter materials, as well as wigs that are capless, tend to cause less itching, since they offer more ventilation (allowing air to get in, which lets your skin breathe). Also, your scalp may be irritated; this is easily treated by applying some zinc lotion once or twice a week; or apply a few drops of witch hazel daily (use a cotton ball to apply it). Also, if you have dandruff, that could cause itching too, so use a medicated shampoo when washing your scalp.
