What I do is first wash the wig with liquid dish soap (as recommended by the late Don Edmundson of Ruby13), rinse it completely, and then soak it in the fabric softener solution before letting it drip dry. The result is always silky-smooth and easy to brush, and I no longer need to use wig detangling spray for intermittent brushing between washes...though I suppose it also helps that most of my girls now have short hair that doesn't tangle as easily to begin with. Oh, and just for the benefit of those who may not know, ALWAYS use cold water.

Yeah, I specifically choose the softener based on which scent I like the best, even if it means getting weird looks from clerks when I take the time to open and sniff a dozen different bottles to find it.
Between that and the Resolve spray I use to clean the dolls themselves, the week or so after bath day has me feeling like I'm sleeping in a giant laundry basket.
