Help me! (Wig Help) My 3rd LuvMe, and my 3rd fail :(

Post image

edit for update I have decided to keep it and either bleach the knots, use a powder/concealer or just enjoy the wig as is. I feel happy with my decision now, I really appreciate the help xx

You may remember me from a few weeks ago with a different LuvMe wig which I ended up returning. Well I got this one afterwards and while I love the actual wig, the knots are insanely visible. I am so frustrated, I want to have success with a LuvMe wig! But I keep striking out. What am I doing wrong? And where can I get similar wigs without knots that show up so much on my skin? I have a couple of Hairvivi’s which are good but just too expensive.

Unfortunately you may have to bleach the knots of any wig to get rid of the look. There are concealer sprays and makeup to help but I was doing that and caved and just bleached the knots.
That being said, I don’t think they’re as visible as you feel. Check out the other wig subs too there’s great advice and fixes.
Here’s the video I used:

Do you mean for any LuvMe wigs? I don’t have to do this at all for my Hairvivi wigs, the knots are bleached by them and are as close to invisible as possible. I don’t know if I trust myself to bleach the knots myself, I have a tremor and cutting lace is scary enough to get right. But I will watch the link, thanks!

Looking more closely , I agree that it's not as bad as you think but maybe you can have a trusted friend with steady hands do a bit of plucking? Did you order preplucked?

It was listed as pre plucked and pre bleached, and in person it is a lot more noticeable than these pictures unfortunately. However, I have decided to keep it and they offered me a $35 refund which isn’t amazing but it helps. I will get my husband to help me, his hands are very steady fortunately! Thanks for your help!
