Answer
ב"ה
Shalom
First of all, my condolences to the Avelim.
The Shloshim are counted as an additional 23 days immediately following the Shiva.
As far as a new wig. I spoke to the Rabbi Yakov Ariel shlit"a , the Chief Rabbi of Ramat Gan, and he said that since the wig is in order to fulfil a mitzvah, a woman who is in the year of Avelut, may buy a new wig if the old one is already intolerable.
Besorot Tovot and Shabbat Shalom
