Jon Renau's Cotton Wig Liner is the plain, low-cost alternative to its Secure Softie. Wigs.com describes it as a soft, 100% cotton liner that fits under a wig for protection from scalp irritation, calling it a great solution for sensitive scalps. The cotton is lightweight and breathable, the cap is one size fits all in black, brown or cream, and it can also be worn as a sleep cap. At $8.99 when we checked, it costs less than half the Secure Softie. What you give up is grip: there are no silicone strips, so it cushions rather than anchors, and a single size means it will not take up as much slack in a loose wig. It suits people whose main problem is an itchy wig cap rather than a wig that slides.
