Wigs - I'm conflicted

Let me just preface my post with this-- I love my wigs. I'm gonna humbly brag a little here and say that they're beautiful, and, when compared to my friends' hair, my husband tells me that mine is far and away the sexiest, :) I don't mind spending 10,000+ every few months to have brunette "hair" like mine.

But I feel disgusting when I'm not in my wig. I hate it as much as I love it. I hate sleeping in it at hotels, I hate having to bring multiple wigs on trips for different purposes (I can elaborate on that, if I need to). I hate leaving company to run to the bathroom every few minutes to check on my hairline and make sure my eyebrows look good. The thought of my wig coming off nags at me every day, and I just want to live my life like I did when I had hair and didn't have to spend this much and worry this much to look like I do.

 I'm conflicted and would appreciate comments. I need to vent and I need advice.

I've seen Bobby.  She was not able to help me, sadly.  Tried to sell me on some gripper type wigs....All the rest of the stuff she recommended is just a waste of your money...you'll see...

Regarding tattoo brows, I had them done awhile back and don't think they look at all natural. The ink spreads out a lot so you can't really get fine hair-like lines. I love the temporary tattoo brows from http://www.beauti-full-brows.com/. They're really affordable and can last for a week. Photo below, the Liz Brow.

This is "Sheridan" by Paula Young. The color is Swedish Blonde. I love it, too! It was only $70! I have three of them now. https://www.paulayoung.com/product/sheridan-whisperlite-wig-by-paul...

It is so beautiful, really! How is the quality? How long can you wear these for an everyday wear?

It's made of kanekalon which is a good hardy fiber and will last maybe 6-12 months.
