Depends on the court and nature of the case. Wigs are required for criminal in the Crown Court and above. Quite a lot of civil work no longer requires a wig (do most of it sitting down as well).

Wigs can be dispensed with if necessary but the general principle is that a barrister owns a wig as you never know whe it might be required.
