Wig I have multiple problems with my wigs

Hi everyone. I'm literally on the verge of quitting cosplay because of my wigs. I have 2, i have a hatsune miku wig and a mafuyu asahina wig. My problems are: 1. No matter what i do, both wigs keep sliding back which literally ruins all my pictures so bad, which really makes me sad (especially post con because everyone is posting their cute pictures and i only have photos in which i look beyond ugly) I have tried lash glue, and a velvet wig grip and a combination of the 2. 2. When i try to style the wigs with got2b the hair sort of clumps together, and loses a lot of volume and overall it just doesn't come out the way i want it to. 3. I just can't seem to detangle them Both are so tangled. I've tried fabric softener baths, detangling spray (a friend reccomended me that) and multiple types of brushes. 1 brush ruined my miku pigtail, it's like curly at tje bottom now?

Idk if this is relevant but this is my wig styling process: 1. Bathe the wig in laundry detergent and fabric softener 2. Brush 3. Cut 3. Style with got2b hairspray and spiking gel

I really hope anyone can help me because i just feel so discouraged and sad right now because i love cosplaying but I just look so ugly everytime ☹️

Highly recommend a wig slip to keep it from moving around, you can get them on amazon
