Upstage Petite by Raquel Welch: The Bestselling Layered Bob in a Petite Cap
Upstage Petite is the petite cap version of Upstage, Raquel Welch's bestselling soft, layered bob from the Raquel Welch Signature Collection. It is made with Tru2Life® heat-friendly synthetic fiber and built on a hand-tied base with a lace front hairline, a monofilament top and a wefted nape, in a petite cap size.
The layers fall at the chin with gentle movement and fullness at the crown, so it looks polished without feeling heavy. The lace front lets you wear the hair off the face, the monofilament top looks like natural scalp wherever you part it, and the Tru2Life fiber can be smoothed, flipped or softly waved with low heat. Velvet-lined ear tabs and nape keep it comfortable all day.

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). We recommend styling at 270°F to 280°F.
- 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.

I love the way the
"I love the way the petite fit my head. Would love to see more styles available in petite. The texture of the hair was nice, the color was perfect. One darker and one lighter. I like the lighter one better. But the problem is it knots up in the back. What do I do to fix this problem? This is not the only wig that this has happened to."
Great!!
"Love this wig!! I thin it out some and put some bangs in when I get it. Most people have no idea it’s a wig!!"
I'm so glad that Raquel
"I'm so glad that Raquel Welch has made this wonderful wig in a petite cap. Of course the fiber is luxurious and the fit is a dream for those of use with small heads."
Absolutely stunning
"This hair is so beautiful and cap is so comfortable and lace front not scratchy at all. The only itchiness comes from the nape permatease. This is the first time I have had a wig that is close to fitting my petite head. (Even with hand tied cap and petite size it is still a little big with tabs pulled completely) Please Raquel Welch make some more of your styles petite. I know this lady would like to collect them. This hair is the first time I have felt sexy since I started losing my hair. I also want to thank you for making getting ready easier. I have Muscular Dystrophy and it allows me to look cute on days I would have had to wear a hat."
