That’s where plopping comes in.

The overall goal of plopping is to tighten your curls so they pop (viaGLAMOUR).

Next, separate your hair into sections and scrunch your hair so your curls start to take shape.

The benefits of plopping is that it completely cuts your routine in half because heat isn’t needed.

No curl pattern is created equal.

For a bigger stretch, skip the hair scrunch step and go straight to wrapping up your hair.
