Black Star styling wig help

Hey sup! I'm being Black Star at this con I'm going to in November. I just wanted some pointers on how to do some spikes. My wig isn't very long, which may be a problem. In the end just some spikes are fine with me. Here's a pic with it on my head. I've never done this before so I'm a total noobie

You wig might not be thick enough so keep that in mind while your styling. (I recommend punky wigs for this reason.)

All you need just Got2B Glued Hairspray and a blow-drier to speed up the process on low temp (you can use high temp with heat resistant wigs).

I started with the middle spike pulling the hair up into shape and blasting it with hair spray. While holing the tip i would use the hair drier till the hairspray set then worked around that first spike doing the same method.
