When my daughter was young...my daughter had lice three or 4 times in one school year. The school she attended had about a 1/2 semester of a Lice issue. Her hair was done to her tailbone. We were told besides using the lice shampoo (and very important picking out the nits)on her personally. Was to launder everything that could be including linens/pillows etc. What couldn't be wet, she suggested (including stuffed animals) to put into a hot dryer. What couldn't be laundered, shampooed or heat dryed...Put in a tight plastic bag or bin, for two weeks.

Even though the lice need blood to survive they can live for a little while in hats, headrests, linens, combs, stuffed animals. I believe they also have a lice spray...which is what I used on the stuffed animals before placing into a plastic bag.

If the wiglet can't be washed or dried, definetly put into a plastic container as suggested earlier for a couple weeks. (If for someone reason the lice were able to lay eggs in the wiglet), pick out with your hand gently as to not harm the hair on the wiglet, and maybe do a warm rinse with water after being stored) You wouldnt want a stylist finding any dead lice or eggs.
