Wig Care and Styling Guide for Tru2Life Heat-Friendly Fibers

Keep your Raquel Welch and Gabor Tru2Life heat friendly synthetic wigs and hair toppers looking their best with proper wig care and maintenance. Designed to mimic the look and feel of natural hair, Tru2Life fiber is lightweight, soft, and heat-friendly—giving you the freedom to curl, straighten, or blow dry your style with tools up to 350°F (180°C).

Follow these expert tips to extend the life of your wig and maintain its beautiful finish.


Before You Begin

  • Gently detangle with a wide-tooth comb—never use a brush.
  • Always start from the ends and work toward the base to avoid fiber damage.
  • Be especially careful with lace front wigs, as the lace is delicate and can tear with excessive pulling.
  • Avoid sudden heat exposure (e.g., ovens) as it may melt synthetic fibers.
  • Do not sleep, shower, or swim while wearing a synthetic wig.

How to Wash Tru2Life Wigs

Pre-Wash / Detangling Your Wig or Topper

  • Gently remove tangles with a wide-tooth comb.

Washing Your Wig or Topper

  • Fill a basin with cool water and add 1 tbsp of HairUWear CLEANSE shampoo.
  • Soak wig for 3–5 minutes. Do not agitate or scrub the fibers and do not soak for more than 5 minutes. Soaking longer than 5 minutes can damage the wig or hairpiece.
  • Rinse thoroughly under cool water, allowing the water to run in the direction of the fibers. Gently press out water with a towel—do not wring.

Conditioning Your Wig or Topper

  • Lightly mist the ends with HairUWear RESTORE and comb through using a wide tooth comb.
  • Avoid spraying directly on hand-tied areas to prevent the hand tied knots from loosening.

Drying Your Wig or Topper

  • Place on a wig stand to air dry.
  • Hand-tied hairpieces should dry flat on a towel.
  • Do not use a solid mannequin head or canvas block head, as this may stretch the cap and disrupt air flow to dry the interior of the cap.

Styling Heat-Friendly Synthetic Hair

  • Once dry, shake and finger-style the wig for a natural look.
  • Use HairUWear PROTECT before applying heat.
  • Set heat tools to low–medium (max 350°F/180°C).
  • To curl: wrap a 1" section around a curling iron, hold 10 seconds, clip to set while cooling.
  • To straighten: run a flat iron down a 1" section and let cool.
  • Once heat-styled, Tru2Life® fiber retains its shape—even after washing.
  • Refresh curls or waves by spritzing a 50/50 mix of RESTORE and water.

Maintenance Tips

  • After each use, gently finger-comb or use a wide-tooth comb to remove tangles.
  • Refresh your style and neutralize odors with HairUWear REFRESH spray.
  • Store on a wig stand or clip onto a hanger to prevent kinks.
  • Only finger-style wavy or curly wigs when dry to preserve the texture.
  • For frizz or matting: wash, condition with RESTORE, and detangle gently from ends up using a wide tooth comb.

Reviews

BEAUTIFUL! LOVE THE STYLE &

"BEAUTIFUL! LOVE THE STYLE & COLOR!"

— Pamela (5/5)

She’s pretty but a lot of work

"Out of the box ready to wear and the fibers were super soft. The tangling is atrocious and constant battle to keep it untangled. Theses HD fibers are super sensitive to any friction and I’ve had to snip her ends a few times despite my TLC and maintenance routine. I wish I had two of them to alternate wearing and have more opportunities to deep condition her. Despite all that…. I love her."

"Too much hair"

— John T. (4/5)

Great wig!

"Wow! This is a stunning wig. I wanted a lower density and less permatease type look and this worked well. The color and omg is gorgeous. The style is perfect for every day use."

— Kristi H. (5/5)

Stunning coloured wig.

"What a beautiful wig, l bought this one in Iced Cafe Latte. The colour is just lovely and the highlights look like salon made. The fit is good even that my head is twenty one and a quarter inch circumstance. And one of the best things is it is hand tied. A fabulous purchase. Thank you WigStudio1."

— LINDA L. (5/5)

Recommend this wig, brand, and wig studio one

"Absolutely beautiful :) the color itself wasn't for me, as I prefer more of a blonde, but the wig overall was true to description. It looks and feels like real hair! The color, in person, I would describe as a sandy light brown mixed with subtle highlights that pop in the sun. The cut resembles (to me) a long "Rachel" from Friends cut (later seasons lol). I would 100% buy again, just in a color more to my liking. Shipping was fast and customer service, as usual, always informative and friendly. No complaints :)"

Mesmerized Review

"I have a petite head and always have to make modifications to my wigs. I am limited in wearing hand-tied wigs due to this but being that there are wefts at the nape ( for modifications), this gave me the option to finally wear one."

— Tammy H. (5/5)

Pretty color

"I love the color. It’s a tad volume heavy on me at the crown. It looks a little poufy, but I used it stays and styled it, it looks pretty good after it’s styled."

— Rachel H. (4/5)
