[wp-hackers] User Details don't update until second refresh of page?

[Dion Hulse (dd32)]

The cache will be being filled with the userdata before your update (or
perhaps, as part of the update).
You'll need to either clean, or update the cache (If you have an object of
the correct user data, update, else, clean)
See clean_user_cache($user_id); and update_user_caches(&$user);
