The answer

It is not permissible to wear a wig over the to avoid removing it, due to the ensuing harms such as enticement and fitna (temptation/strife), except in cases of pressing necessity, such as the need for work. In such a case, it is permitted only to the extent of that necessity, until the Muslim woman finds other work or no longer needs to work.
