I have a straight sheitel but tried to have it curled a few times. It comes out well but after wearing it a couple of days, the curls loosens up and it looks messy.
Any way I can keep those curls last longer?
Or maybe, what's the best way to store my sheitel so it keeps them longer.
I do spray them but it doesn't help much.

All I was told by my sheitel lady is, that curls need to be redone and so ladies with curls/waves go to sheitel lady more often. Which financially is not working for me.

You need a shaitel that isn't straight. Something with body that holds curls.

I actually find that naturally wavy wigs frizz up faster, I prefer naturally straight
use a texture spray before curling like this https://www.amazon.com/Loreal-.....r=8-7
curl small pieces of hair with a 1 inch iron, use a good hairspray to hold like this https://www.amazon.com/Loreal-.....r=8-7
do not expose to rain or humidity

What head do you keep it on? My sheitel macher told me to get a head shorter than the length of the sheitel so the curls aren't hanging. Also spraying more hairspray will keep the curls for longer.
But if your sheitel is straight hair, it won't hold a curl that well no matter what you do. If you think about someone with straight hair, it doesn't hold a curl well, it's the same for a wig.

I was told to keep curlers in.

Tell your SM not to use conditioner. Shampoo only.

It makes the hair sleek and slippery and does not hold a curl as well.
