From [UILabel setLineBreakMode:] documentation: If you are using styled text in iOS 6 or later, assigning a new value to this property causes the line break mode to be applied to the entirety of the string in the attributedTextproperty. If you want to apply the line break mode to only a portion of the text, create a new attributed string with the desired style information and associate it with the label. If you are not using styled text, this property applies to the entire text string in the text property.
So build an attributed string with no wrapping where you want to keep hyphenated words unbroken and assign to the labels attributedText property. Wrapping is property of NSParagraphStyle, set with NSParagraphStyleAttributeName attribute on the string.
