If the drier was hot, untangling it may be impossible as the synthetic fibers may have melted somewhat causing the mess. All you can really do is to take a comb and work from the bottom to the top attempt comb out the wig as much as possible. If this is an expensive wig, I would take it to a local wig shop to see if they can rescue it for you.

Reply to Lori's Post: Here is what happened. I was ask to clean 16 sets of Santa wigs and beards by my son in law.

I stuck them all in together in my dryer for 10 minutes on low, your right I have a tangled mess.

These are professional wigs and beards made out of synthetic fiber.

Can you look into this a little more as I do not have $1,000 to replace them.

I did some additional research and was pointed to this product: http://www.aaa-wigs.com/accessories/wig-conditioners/silicon-k-conditioner-mist.html they say the silicone spray is wonderful at detangling!
