There are two types of wigs - real hair and synthetic. Both need to be maintained and looked after. Real hair wigs might feel more natural but require just as much maintenance as your own natural hair. They need to be shampooed and blow dried regularly which is not ideal if you feel unwell during treatment. Synthetic wigs are often cheaper and easier to manage, drying back into shape once washed, however they do not last as long, particularly with longer styles which can develop friction frizz on the ends from rubbing on clothing. The most important thing when choosing a synthetic hair wig is the base. Its rarely the color or cut that you pay the extra money for it all about the foundation of the wig and how it is sewn together. Another tip for wearing a wig is to wear a wig cap. This keeps the hair you have flat to the head and also stops the base of a wig rubbing on a sensitive scalp. However a wig cap is not essential and will not make the wig fit any better than it would to a bald head.
My advice would be to buy the best wig for your budget and needs. If you like to wear your hair back off your face then it may be worth putting the extra money towards an invisible lace fronted wig. Mono filament wigs allow you to change the parting and give a natural look, a double layer of mono filament will generally sit flatter to the head for a less voluminous look. Try different bases to see which one is comfortable for you and ask the advice of experts on the different options available.
