Go for it! I have worn wigs for the past three months. It worked great for me. I have accumulated six thus far. My regimen was to wash every three days, deep condition, moisturize, seal, and braid my hair going into 5-6 cornrows. I baggy my whole head, apply a wig cap, and wig.
Since my braider is back in town, I will be alternating between the braids, wigs, and phony ponies.
