Narrative:
Departing teb flying runway heading; upon take off on the ruudy two departure. At approximately 200 to 300 ft off the ground we had what we believe to be windshear which knocked us off course severely. Corrected the issue. Once we were trying to get back on course at about 500 to 600 ft we were hit again with windshear which knocked us off course again. Losing my headset during the process tower was trying to contact us to see if we were flying assigned departure. I missed the first call due to losing my headset. I heard the second call. I answered saying we were on the departure. Getting back on course we had no other issues. Departure was kind enough to help us with the rest of the departure while leaving the ny airspace. I have never experienced this type of windshear on departure. I would have informed ATC of the windshear but I was so in shock of the entire situation; I was just glad to be on track.

Title: A light twin pilot departed on the TEB RUUDY TWO and hit turbulence twice which caused his headset to fall off and as he regained aircraft control a track deviation had resulted.
