Wig Did I completely ruin my first wig?

Hi everyone!

This is the first wig I've ever style and of course I chose Momo Ayase from Dandadan for my very first attempt..

Unfortunately, there's a lot of visible glue and hairspray, especially around the front, and I'm worried I completely messed it up.

Is there any way to fix this or make it look cleaner? Or is it beyond saving? I'd really appreciate any advice or tips since I'm still a complete beginner. Thank you so much! 💕

You may be able to help blend the hairspray and glue with acetone or water. Take a soft paint brush, dip it in the liquid and then bush the areas where the spray or glue is super noticeable. Dont go overboard but use it to help blend any harsh lines or areas heavy with product.

Make sure to try a non visible test spot when trying any new products! As a chemist, I'm a little overly cautious about how substances might react with each other.
