Do any of you wear vacuum wigs?

I've talked to a few women who wear vacuum wigs, but they all have AT or AU. I have diffuse AA, and still have hair on most of my head. Well, it's diffuse, and you can see scalp all over, but most of my head is covered even though I've lost probably around 70% of my hair.

I want to know how often I would have to shave my head to wear a vacuum wig, and if I could just buzz it or if I would have to shave it close every day or something. I just want to know what other people do.

What is a vacuum wig? I have never heard of this.

Yes, you have to have bare scalp to wear a vacuum hairpiece, for it to "stick on". The lace cap ones with silicone around the edges are good when you have a lot of hair loss or big patches.
