Jamie Fraser star Sam Heughan detailed the disastrous results of dyeing his hair which forced him to wear a wig.
During Outlander Season 6, Episode 6, Claire's hair was cut short. Why would someone do such a thing while she was so ill? It wasn't an easy episode for Claire.

Her feverish mind saw storm clouds, a snake, and her heart in her hands. I'm not Roger at the pulpit, but you don't have to be a singing historian lay preacher to know that trouble is coming. It began in the form of a bad haircut, after Malva and housekeeper Mrs Bug cut Claire's hair off to ease the fever.
After attending to Claire 24 hours a day for almost a week, Malva and housekeeper Mrs Bug (Sarah Collier) decided to cut her hair off, thinking it would help reduce Claire's temperature.

Director Brendan Maher told Vulture that while both Menzies and Heughan had stunt doubles for the physically demanding sequence, neither used them much. “We had people for safety, just in case, but the nature of the work is that you want the actors to do as much as they possibly can,” Maher said.
In season 6 the wig was awful, the flash sideways clean wig was a little bit better but still. But the on-island Claire look awful, like she had some piece of cloth on her hair.
This storyline is taken from the books. In A Breath of Snow and Ashes, Claire and Tom come down with the same sickness around the same time dysentery is traveling around the Ridge.

After Claire sleeps with the King of France to save Jamie's life, when she leaves Versailles Palace, the last thing she does is pick up the orange and take it with her. It was a small gesture by Claire, a choice that symbolizes that she's leaving with her dignity.
The Rabbit
While laying on the battlefield, injured and hallucinating, Jamie also saw a rabbit on the grass not too far from him. In researching the symbolism of rabbits, I learned that in dreams they symbolize a stroke of good luck – both Claire and Jamie were saved shortly after seeing their respective rabbits.

For one, it did take the casting department a while to capture "thick red hair" since the actor is a natural brunette and had tried to dye her hair a few times to get it right. However, after there was a bit of a hair disaster, Skelton now wears a wig.

The colored wigs are just an accessory that Pryce likes to add to her outfit. In reality, they have never impacted her performance in a bad way.
Jamie: "Claire, it was you. It's always been you, and it always will be. Get into bed and put the candle out.
Jamie denies having slept with her, but the damage to his and to Claire's reputation is done—and the bond between the Frasers and Malva is severed, until just a few weeks later, when Claire finds Malva murdered in the garden. “It's like the peak of the tragedy, and it's so visceral.

The sex they have next is passionate, intense, and incredibly erotic. Claire obtains an orgasm, which surprises Jamie, and proves the two have crazy chemistry. (I mean, they go at it again before the episode is through.)
During his time apart from Claire, Jamie slept with several women, including Mary McNab (Emma Campbell-Jones) and Geneva Dunsany (Hannah James). And of course, there was Laoghaire MacKenzie (Nell Hudson) as well who had her sights on Jamie since season one.
