I have a Toni wig and although it's not a Diy wig it has a track with short hair in between wefts so when the wind blows you don't see anything.
Maybe you can sew hair that's about 2-3 inches long in between the tracks to combat this.

I had this problem when I made my own wig and after inspecting the Toni wig I'll probably do this the next time I make a u part.
 
Sewing technique. When I'm making the wig I mark where my ears are on the dome cap. By the time I get up to the ear marks I start sewing the weft up the sides the cap (where the hairline/edges would be) towards the top instead of sewing the straight weft across the cap. It's hard to explain, I hope that makes sense. When the wind blows your hair will stay down and you won't see any tracks.
 
Thanks!

I think I understand. Is there a YouTube video for this? Do you know what this technique is called?

This where I learned it from. Skip to the 3:50 mark -
See how she's bringing the track all the way to the top on the side of the wig instead of sewing straight across and then flipping the track over? I hope it makes sense now. I don't think this technique has a name, it's just a placement preference.

I do the exact thing...curving the wefts upwards along the edges of the cap.
