When I get out of the shower, while my hair is soaking wet, I take the end of a rattail comb and I poke around my hair and lift the hair off my scalp. My hair tends to plaster to my head and if I don't do this before plopping, then it sticks and I get no volume. This does cause quite a bit of water to drip, so then what I do is spray my hair with water before or plopping so then I can easily apply project and still have the squishy sound & clumps. I have very fine, 2b/2c hair and it dries very easily. I recommend this to anyone who gets hair plastered to their head after getting out of the shower.

I also find that microplopping with a t-shirt after plopping for 5 mns gives me lots of curl definition.

Thank you so much for making this video. I have been working on my hair for a couple of years. My hair is 2b-3a thick, corse, wiry, unruly , uneven, dry frizzbomb. For years I have tried everything silk pillow, silk bonnet, tried following the CGM, used good products, tried many different methods and combinations, perfect towel, you name it. My hair soaks up moisture and loses it just as quickly. Small amounts of protein are ok, but anything more it was even more dry and brittle. I’ve always had to hydrate daily, at least wet and condition daily. I stopped dying or using heat on my hair over 5 years ago to let my silver start to shine. I had never seen the wet plop method, I tried that today, it has made a world of difference. Absorbs all the good stuff I put on it, it clumps and stays that way. I have never seen my hair look the way it looks today. I can’t believe it. I just wanted to come on here and express my gratitude. You have led me through a journey. Thank you so much for doing what you do.

I microplop when I first get out of the shower so my hair isn't dripping wet and weighing down my hair. Then I plop in a cheap hairnet I got from Walmart for roughly an hour so my hair can air dry for a little while. I take it down, add a little more mousse (the Aussie mousse) and diffuse to 90% dry. Then I dry plop it in the hairnet again until it's completely dry to encourage volume and shrinkage. I find the hairnet preferable to fishnet stockings as the holes are smaller and none of my curl clumps fall out of the plop but there's still plenty of small holes for air to get in.
@lisabeckman65813 жыл бұрын
Instead of fish net I use a hair net bonnet type thing that I ordered from their website, it’s called Scrunch It Breathe (they make the scrunch it brush). It has a drawstring the pulls it up on all sides. I find it still has all the benefit of fish net but theres still enough room for movement at the roots. There’s way less guess work wondering how dry it is. Plus you can loosen up the drawstrings to get even more movement. Your option is definitely a more budget friendly option.

He said this once to one of his grad students during a night of observing at a telescope in Chile, and the student looked at him and said, "Did you just say 'ploppity'?!?" End of digression.

I just use my perfect hair care towel to gently wrap my hair much like I did with a terry towel before. So my hair is gently wrapped but not dripping onto my scalp, only for as long as it takes me to do my skin care and get dressed then it comes off right away and I air dry. Thankfully my mermaid waves seem to stay. My scalp just can't stand product on it. Shampoo is for my scalp and the rest is for my hair so i don't usually apply anything else to my scalp. Unless I'm using the curlsmith scalp line but even that conditioner is use sparingly.

My hair is shoulder length. I micro-plop. Personally don’t have much space in bathroom to do any other plopping. I do have low density,& fine hair.

Hey Courtney, Great video! Have you ever tried the scrunching microfiber gloves? Based on your definitions, I think they would be used for micro plopping. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

I like how plopping produces the most waves but it makes my roots a funky shape. Ideas?

I have long coarse hair, I like plopping for definition, but I always get a mess in the back on my scalp after I finish plopping.. It always ends up wonky, or tangled, and if I fix that area, I lose all the definition I just worked on. So sad lol. Not sure how to fix this issue??

Question about wet plop. Would piling your hair in the shower cap get leave on on my roots?
@lorecarreras27553 жыл бұрын
Hey Courtney!! I really like your videos. I have been doing the CGM for two years now and the change is unbeliable :) but i have a question: I dont usually plop bc my hairline disappears into the wilderness (i mean, i cant define a straight line across my hair) and it looks weird. Any advice?

I have low porosity hair, I'm not sure all of it is lp and I don't think it's naturally lp(I remember when I was a kid that after swimming [air/sun drying] or showering and putting my in a towel that it didn't take as long to dry as it does now). Wet plopping sounds like a good idea despite the increased dry time

But what ig your hair is shorter, like shoulder length. When do you comb your hair? I tried plopping but afterwards it was incredibly tangled so i had to brush it out.
