It originally wasn't a wig in his first several episodes. But when Momoa wanted to cut his hair for personal reasons, the producers did not want him to because the hair was such a staple part of the character. So they had his hair cut and professionally made into a wig so he could keep having that same hairstyle.

I recall reading he only used his own hair as a wig for an episode or two and then replaced it with an actual wig

That sounds believable. Creating a wig out of the actual hair that you are looking to mimic seems like an idea that might sound smart on paper. But there are probably actually a bunch of logistical downsides to that so it's actually better to just make a 100% synthetic wig.
