How do un-spike a wig?

I wanted to re-spike one of my wigs so it would look better but how do you un-spike a wig? I would think you pour iwarm water over it something but I'm not entirely sure. Any suggestions?

Thank you ^^

it probably depends on what you used to style it (chalk isn't going to wash out but hairspray will) but you can just fill the sink with cold water (warm or hot water risks possibly reshaping it) and add a mild shampoo and let it soak, if there is that much hair products in it you can rub the spikes out it'll help.

Yeah, I've unspiked several wigs to start over, and I just use warm water. But I generally just use hairspray and hair cement. If you used caulk or some other product like it, then I'm not sure if it's possible.
