I use a wig grip. It’s not always full proof but does help. You can get them on Amazon.

Look up video on Tik Tok or you tube on wig protocol. There are many great products and specific steps to follow. Go with the pros tips like cross dressers that do this for a living. They have beautiful wigs and great tips to offer.

Wigs can also be altered. Take it to a wig shop and ask if they can help you.
