To dream you wear a wig, indicates that you will soon make an unpropitious change.

To dream of wearing a wig is a good omen to a bald bachelor, as it foretells that some lady has a design to catch the poor fellow, and will not scruple as to the means she uses to accomplish it: if a young man dreams of wearing a wig, it is a sign that he will sleep with his sweetheart before he marries her.

For one who has no lack of hair to dream that he wears a wig, signifies that he will be compelled to stand before a judge in a court of law, either as a criminal or as a witness.
