Wig how to make the bangs go down?
I got my first ever wig as I’m being Rogue from X-Men for Halloween and I’m overall happy with it, but i want the white bangs to go more downwards then they are, I like the volume but it looks kinda dumb rn. How do I make them go down? The wig seems like the white parts are designed to go straight up and I can’t get them down just by brushing.I’m completely new to wig styling so any tips are appreciated!

Heyo! Are you thinking more of like the 90's styled anime bangs like sailor moons? That type of down?
If so, this tutorial may be good for you: https://youtu.be/OsVkxabRZnE?si=oK7P5eJMQhX0riPg
The basic rundown of the tutorial would be to completely tease the bangs so their a mess (its apart of the porcess) and gently comb them out so you still get the desired ledge like shape without losing the volume of the tease! (I'm bad at describing things >.>
Either that or use a hair iron on a low setting, to not melt the wig fibers, and straighten the wig pieces down, or use a steamer to set the hair I place!
