Plopping is a game-changing method for easily-weighed-down loose curls and waves. For these curl-types, the weight of water and moisture in their hair will pull the curl pattern down before it's had a chance to dry, causing the resulting waves or curls to be in a loose, stretched state. Plopping works against this.
How long should I plop my hair for?
Plop your hair for 10 – 20 minutes and then let your hair air-dry or blow dry them with a diffuser. Plop your hair until it's dry. Plop your hair overnight so you'll wake up with dry hair.
Does plopping really work?
Hair plopping is a great tool for ladies with curls and natural waves, because it leaves the curls intact and doesn't stretch them out. Ladies with baby fine hair can also experience the benefits of plopping, because it is gentle on your hair and can lead to less frizz.
