Is there a wig that doesn't heat your head?

My mom would not be able to wear a hat during the summer obviously heat would stay in and she would get too hot. She needs a wig, but that wig should, for lack of a better phrase, breathe.

So it doesn’t hold the heat in near the scalp.

Is there a wig that is like that? Or do all wigs effectively hold heat to the scalp?

Any covering on the head is going to hold heat to one degree or another. If she wants to minimize that, then something like a shemagh or a keffiyeh is likely her best bet (although a keffiyeh is considered menswear). They’re both fairly light weaves, almost gauzy, and should allow air to circulate.

Hair in general is just hot, and the more you have, the hotter it is. If you’ve every gotten a crew cut or shaved your head in the summer, you’ll know that the difference is stark.

Why does she need a wig or hat though? Is this a religious issue, where she’s not allowed to show her own hair?

Real hair does this, so unless you find a wig with built in AC, you just gotta deal with it like everyone else.

As a person with just long hair, there ain’t crap you can do. Hair is effing hot. The thicker the hair the hotter it gets.

I’m not certain - but I’d mention that because wigs lie directly against the scalp they tend to have less airflow. Hats that are designed for hot weather usually try and minimize how much material is actually touching your skin.
