The case includes a wig stand having a base which partitions the case into two compartments and which may be supported at various heights within the case. Conveniently, the case is fabricated with removable wall sections such that when only the wig is transported, an upper section of the case may be removed to shorten the case and make it easier to carry. To reduce the shipping cost of the case, each section is adapted to be shipped in a flat condition and afterwards easily assembled into its normal cylindrical configuration by the retailer or purchaser.
