Sleeping In The Plop

This is a video showing how I sleeping with the curls overnight when my hair is wet. This is helpful if I know I will be pressed for time in the morning but I still want my hair done or what I do if I end up showing at night and wash my hair. I do this instead of pineappling.
The towel I used is from Lakeshore Dry Goods

[@angelinamee9491]

I have straight flat hair, I have no clue why I'm watching this or how I​ got to it lol, great video thou! Hope it helped people with hair like this.

[@Lila7495375]

Angelina Mee lol same my hair is not pin straight but still no reason for me to watch this 😂

[@ratchetcakezvani7435]

pff same it just came up in my recommended xD

[@Sofiegonzalez]

Lol same here 😊 very informative thought 😀😅

[@glorious6779]

Angelina Mee 😂

[@barelyvlogsdiysandmore2457]

It will actually give you some curls

[@hollys3465]

I love how you can hear your family getting ready for bed in the background lol. Great, informative video! Thanks!!!

[@TheCleanCurl]

hahaha I am glad it isn't annoying! idk how many times I have to beg them to be quite or maybe right scream right outside the door lol

[@KelseySmith]

I’ve never tried sleeping in a plop. Honestly, sounds like such a time saver. I’m new to curly girl world. I hope this works for my wavy hair. Thank you!

[@welivetoshine]

I'm a night showerer and my hair looks so pretty after my shower, but then I sleep on my curls and my hair just looks awful when I wake up, I do the pineapple technique and it doesn't seem to make my curls pretty when they dry overnight. Thanks for this video!! I'm also going to look into getting one of those hair towels. :)

[@madisonburchfield6200]

Emily Elizabeth long sleeve shirts work too, I have watched people using them on other videos!

[@ashleyhumann8094]

Emily Elizabeth I do a bun but if that doesn’t work try a scarf or buff to have your hair at night.

[@AbstrACTioNation]

Olivia Walker I just bought this on Amazon (for real I’m a real person not selling anything:) Aquis - Original Hair Towel, Ultra Absorbent & Fast Drying Microfiber Towel For Fine & Delicate Hair (Retro) www.amazon.com/dp/B07D3DLVHC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Ca6vCbWM95SGR

[@Twinsforthewins14]

Emily Elizabeth me too! I’m trying to figure out the best way to deal with my hair, I hate showering in the morning as I have children and waking up before them and try not to make noises is so difficult :(

[@rebekahm.9302]

You can also sleep with a satin bonnet! They are around 10-15 dollars on Amazon!

[@kahletobias526]

Thank you for saying “if pineapple doesn’t work for you”. I have tried the pineapple so many times and I ALWAYS have a huge crease no matter how loose I tie it, or I lose my hair tie in my sleep. I’m gonna try plopping. Thanks!!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Agreed, It works for me at certain lengths but mostly not

[@kirkpetersen9886]

Dude same everytime i try the pineapple my hair ends up frizzy and the front strands het straightened out it sucks

[@toci8475]

My hair isn’t long enough to pineapple lol

[@bellier245]

Yesssss my hair is really curly but it's fine the pineapple leaves my hair frizzy and with the hairtie indent

[@soleyerlajonsdottirlindal]

Kahle Tobias how did it work for you?

[@carlamolina695]

Wow this makes me realize I neglect my curls so much

[@CanIgetfollowerswithnoposts]

Carla Molina same omg

[@SoniaDekker]

Love it!!! Great video! I’m a microbiologist, btw, and the toilet lid is just fine-no worries!

[@wissalbenqezza8744]

hey . plz can u tell is plopping damp hair evey night damaged the scalp like creating bacteria sand things

[@bellastaples8125]

WISSAL BENQEZZA what?

[@powerpuffcurl1459]

WISSAL BENQEZZA no it doesn’t but I wouldn’t reccomend washing your hair everyday

[@summerfleming85]

Tried this and made sure I didn’t squish down any important parts. It worked!! I just have one of those cotton hair towels that has a button closure. It fell off in the wee hours of this morning, but my curls still look great! It was damp (which I used to think was a bad thing since I expected it to be dry and perfect after sleeping in plops) so I diffused it right away, added a little water/mousse to the weird parts and frizzy ends.. voila! Looks great! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@cassandragonzalez5660]

This was GREAT! I catch myself having to wash my hair at night because I NEVER have time...I need to try sleeping like this. I just cant' imagine going to bed with wet hair though. NY is FREEZING.

[@lindasue8719]

Keep in mind, wearing something on your head will retain a lot of your body heat ( just like when you're Outdoors).

[@RaeKennedy77]

I shower at night and sleep in the plop all the time. I've been experimenting with putting pin curls on the back of my head before I plop with good results.

[@noneofurbizness1271]

Great Idea!!! I need to try that b/c I need to train my back girls b/c they dont clump and shrink like 6 inches! Plus when I plop the back tends to be too stiff and doesnt fall back down ugh!

[@elcharlton]

My problem is that I have a cow lick in the back, top of my head (where a pony tail would normally sit), that makes me look like I'm balding. I am still struggling eith how to make that go away. All I know to do now is use a claw-style clip, and pull half my hair back. But I don't like to do that.

[@haleylanier1940]

After my babies were born, my hair completely changed textures. It’s now a 2b/c when it used to be straight. So I’m very new to this whole world and pineappling did not work for my waves so I will try this tonight! Thank you so much!!

[@stephyclaws]

Amazing. As you can see from my picture I straighten my hair and have done for about 10 years because my natural waves are horrible and frizzy but I didn't realise that was because of products 😞 so I'm watching lots of videos because I am ditching my straightener 😁 yours just came up as a recommendation and I love it!! So I subscribed... excuse the really long comment, I ramble a lot 😂 xx

[@TheCleanCurl]

stephyclaws I appreciate it! Welcome!!

[@stephyclaws]

The Clean Curl ☺!! Xx

[@ambermkhan86]

Same

[@zelipautu]

same for me, here I'm waiting for my natural freezy wavy curly volumy hair to come back lol

[@Laura-rd6kb]

Me too I used to straighten my hair everyday for two years 😬 and I regret it because I’m tired of straightening it and my curly hair is damaged ☹️

[@hhfama]

This was one of the most helpful plop videos I've seen. Thank you sharing your tips.

[@IlonaKwisthout]

Thank you for this video!I I used to sleep with my wet hair in a turbie towel but that never works out. I never wear my natural curls because I don't know how to work with them but I will definitely try this technique.

[@kadigonzalez5727]

Thanks! I just ordered the towel! (Your specific color is sold out so a little searching will do the trick!) Also, everyone needs to freaking CHILL on the toilet thing.

[@nautiAdri]

Your curls are so pretty

[@sunrisebliss6694]

Awesome video! Especially love watching you wrap the towel. Thank you for the feature and we're so pleased you're noticing results!

[@ramfaki1256]

These curls're just terrific👌!!Like you 'd used rollers😍on your hair❗...I'm speechless😶❕My warmest wishes for the new year!May your good days'd be more than the bad ones,lovely😘❗ I salute you from south Europe~ Greece💙🇬🇷🇪🇺❕

[@carmelinanovielli8449]

she looks like she could be salice rose's mom :o

[@ameliap7564]

she looks younger than her haha

[@smasheduppumpkinette]

Great idea. I’m a night shower person with fine curly hair. Trying this out tonight so I hope it works out. I don’t pineapple as it pulls my curl out at the root. I’ve been living in Dutch braids for ages now as it’s a wear to bed and still ok for the morning style for me. My plopping towel is too short so I’ve got a very fine/thin cotton scarf on. It’s not tied I just tucked the ends in so I hope it lasts.

[@hannahrosemansfield4024]

I think you just changed my life

[@mishie618]

Its basically a wash now, style later technique. U can't just wake up, take off a bonnet, and go. It's a pretty significant refresh when you pull out a diffuser. But you have lovely hair, so you seem to know how to manage it very well no matter what you choose to do!

[@lindenpeters2601]

I always thought the pineapple was to preserve already dry curls and volume, not wet hair. I have good results with pineappling on nights I don't wash.

[@hopie81201]

I love supporting local businesses whenever possible so thanks for the towel recommendation! Fellow Michigander 😎

[@qtdeshina]

This video gave me confidence to sleep in the lower half of my hair in two low braids and the top half of my hair in two space buns while it was all damp. And usually I get headaches from sleeping with wet hair but I think this half up half down only damp hair thing is going to work!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Keep me posted!!

[@divinitybell3991]

Thank you for the video. Right know I discover my curls but with gel cast they need about 3-4 hours till they dry. Today I want to try plopping over night and to see how you style them in the morning was very helpful for me.

[@ElleS572]

Maybe I'm a germaphobe, but I would suggest using a chair instead if a toilet seat? lol, great video!

[@ElleS572]

*of

[@misskirigirl]

I'm grossed out too and I'm not a germophobe at all.

[@hippydoom2287]

Yeah the toilet thing is super gross. I couldn't believe she did that.

[@wannabefitgirl7260]

Really... the toilet Seat was down. And how many germs you think are on your Phone ? More than on a toilet Seat...

[@misskirigirl]

Dawn van Cranebroek your probably right but I don't shit on my phone.

[@heathergentry4770]

I tried sleeping in the crunch for the first time and it actually turned out better than I thought it would, for my hair since it's more wavy. It has a little more curl than usual. The only thing is, I need to get a diffuser. And I used a cotton t-shirt instead of the towel...gotta work with what you have. The look my dog gave me was great lol. Twisting my locks also helps create curls that don't wanna curl. Thanks for the video! Sleeping in it is going to be a game changer for me!

[@frostythehoeman6969]

Wait I've never seen a plop look so cute - I love the way you twist the towel (and it totally makes sense not to flatten your crown) bc it actually looks kinda cute. The t-shirt looks like crap lol. And I am buying that towel! 🤍

[@callmeaftercoffee]

You're so right about how you wrap your hair! I tried wrapping it like you did so there wasess pressure on the top, and I got way better volume today! (I didn't try sleeping in it, but just wrapping the opposite direction really helped! Thanks!)

[@alyssafroman4459]

Omg yes, I can't adjust to showering in the morning. This is great, thank you.

[@MsChristin1982]

I really appreciate you sharing this information! This is the best method for me! I didn't realize how much stuff I was doing wrong! Now I have beautiful curls and really good hair days! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

[@scooterpush]

i can't pineapple because it makes my hair hurt at the roots, {same problem with ponytails}, so i'm glad you did this video. i will try it on the weekend. Thank you.

[@siberry5536]

I for sure will be trying this tonight! I have short hair but maybe if I pin curl the back and pin it flat to the back of my head so they don’t go straight. Just starting out and if this works for me I will be forever grateful ❤️❤️❤️

[@TheCleanCurl]

Yea the back of your hair will be more of issue the shorter it is. Let me know how you tweek it and if that helps!

[@MsBettyRubble]

Did you try it? How is it working for you?

[@suzanne8227]

Love this. Thank you so much I did mine last night before watching and this video was definitely helpful for how I’m going to try it tonight. Thank you!! And your hair looks beautiful

[@lianeb70]

THIS! 👆🏻 I have the same sized towel and had no idea how to wrap it to plop overnight. This is genius. You have changed my life. Thank you!

[@OpethHasMyHeart]

Thanks for the technique. I'm definitely gonna give this a go as pineapple doesn't work for me either.

[@beccakirk4367]

Wow your curls are beautiful!!! And your voice is so soothing! Also love the sign on your wall with that verse! ❤️🙌🏻

[@camilamamani8419]

Amazing video, thanks. I'm going natural and I'm watching a lot of videos, my hair is like yours, now I know how to fix it in the mornings 🙌

[@Laura-ct4kv]

Gorgeous curls - so inspired to do this now! Thank you xx

[@denadargentina2518]

Your video is the best one I've come across yet.. thank you so much

[@chrystina]

Looks gorgeous! So impressed that all you used is gel! Will have to try that sometime ☺️

[@itssimplymeli]

This is so helpful yess!!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Thanks! Let me know if you try it!

[@MsBettyRubble]

Your result is amazing! I'll try this; but I have long, think hair with high porosity. Putting it up in a towel will take at least a day to dry. Depending on how I pin my hair up when it's wet, it can take almost 2 days to dry. If I used this method, I'd have to partially dry my hair before plopping. I only hope my hair looks as good as yours.

[@Natalia-oj6mm]

We have the same curl pattern!!!! I’m currently struggling with flatness at my roots because is getting longer. I’ll try this tonight

[@p.s.byhannahmarie2622]

this was SO helpful!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Thank you! I hope it works out!

[@janniemackay1893]

p.s.byHannahMarie .

[@Drmorganaurora]

Definitely going to try. The pineapple is a disaster for me. And i shower at night!

[@MiaStar]

What was that spray by Flourish you used? Your hair is absolutely GORGEOUS. I'm so in love with the curls and the cut :)

[@shelbynelson5470]

i am LIVING for your curls omg 😍

[@lia.inlalaland]

my hair is kinda wavy, it used to be PIN straight, but scrunch it a lot, i plop it with a t-shirt, but it never works! thanks for this! very helpful!

[@janedoe6181]

Your hair is sooooo gorgeous! I want your hair!

[@WavyKate]

This is the first video of yours I’ve watched. I’m in love with your curls, your shower curtain and towel 🥰 great video xxx

[@Amanda-yd2ey]

Your tips are the best!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Thank you so much! Thank is so kind of you :)

[@xtinaoddrocks1817]

Wow! Now I need a long sleeve t-shirt.

[@mayamckinzie2460]

Literally subscribing because your voice is so relaxing 😩

[@lavida7706]

The plop might be the hardest thing LOL. It takes me like 15 tries to get a plop to stay. But i may look into getting a fancy towel

[@heatherlynncarter4285]

I wish I could do this! I’d prefer to take showers before bed, but I sleep with a cpap and I couldn’t fit my frame over the material. :( (more motivation to get healthier and get off the silly thing though!) Your hair looks great!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Heather Carter thanks so much! I even just do this if I shower in the morning so try that to see if your hair likes it!

[@navygirl20091]

Your curls are gorgeous!! 😍

[@kellyv3448]

You have beautiful curls!

[@shelbyk2193]

She has amazing skin. Also, great video!!!

[@katza1990]

we have basically the exact same issues and I was wondering what to do about this. will definitely try to sleep in the plop, now that I see it worked out ok for you

[@Bella-qu5pf]

I never knew to plop this way!! Thank you!!!

[@valerielancaster9238]

You have amazing curls! This video helped me get some new ideas! I have 3 kids so night showers are key for me but my hair is so thick and I usually have to redo it all the next morning anyways or sadly put it up and hide it 😣

[@TheCleanCurl]

Valerie Lancaster I feel your pain! I am plopping tonight as I round up my little ones lol

[@Calls819]

I’ve had a lot of luck overnight plopping (lol). My hair is SO thick and takes forever to dry... I still wake up with wet hair but I can diffuse and be on my way ALOT faster! I’m surprised this isn’t more common among curlies 🤷🏻‍♀️😁

[@chelsieromero4874]

I like to wet plop in a shower cap for that same reason. I don't want to squish my curls😁...I have very thick type 3 and 4 curls so you know the struggle 🙂

[@kaspermarie9210]

Such a great idea!!! Hey from another fellow Michigan curly girl haired girl😍😍

[@Lithostoic]

What's with all these people scared of toilet lid germs? Do they not clean, or flush with the lid closed? Yuck. I tried this once and my hair was still soaking wet in the morning! What a waste of yime. Idk how you gals do it.

[@TheCleanCurl]

Lithostoic I totally agree with you. The toilet comments are killing me lol. Also I prefer a thinner towel like this one and I’d rather my hair be a bit wet cuz I’ll diffuse it in the morning. When it comes out too dry it’s too smashed looking. So if it’s too dry I have to rewet it. Of it comes out pretty damp I can diffuse it and it comes out much fresher looking. It’s really more of a hair saver if you dont have as much time in the morning or you HAVE to shower at night and you don’t know what to do with your hair.

[@TheCleanCurl]

Lithostoic is just try an old t shirt if you can but yes I can see a cut bedsheet working well so you can tie the ends easier

[@Lithostoic]

Deliah Gray So you're telling me with the lid CLOSED, toilet bacteria somehow sprays on TOP of the lid? I own a blacklight and I can tell you my bathroom is very clean. And yeah, we do bleach it every time we use it. Takes 5 seconds.

[@Poeticdyme]

@@Lithostoic It sounds like you said that just to argue. Who cleans up under the latches and everything EVERY time? Especially if you live with a man. He does it too? Just as thoroughly? Give me a break. Using the toilet seat is nasty, period.

[@M_K_M_K_M_K]

Lithostoic You use bleach EVERY time you use the toilet.....? That is not healthy. Not for you and not this planet.

[@rayyanalabdrabalnabi1726]

Oh lord, your hair looks so goooood

[@Janessa107]

You have such a beautiful, soothing voice! 💖

[@annettesh75]

It seems your hair is exactly like mine. Which is great. I have gotten a couple new tips from you. Thanks.

[@asiamarie7138]

Do you shower every night, if not how do you keep your curls looking fabulous throughout the week

[@mollythomas7049]

Get a silk pillowcase, they preserve curls and prevent frizz. Cotton pillowcases absorb all of the moisture on your scalp. You can also mist your hair in the morning to reset it if you shower at night. Sleeping with a loose braid is very nice too. Dry shampoo is also a lifesaver if you have an oily scalp and plan on showering at nights or less than every day. Hope this was helpful!

[@addierehm1111]

I shower every night and only actually shampoo once a week and just put conditioner in my hair the rest of the time. My hair needs that reset every day because it's short. Once it gets longer I just pull it up in a scrunchie in the shower or use a shower cap and mist with leave in conditioner before I put on a sleeping bonnet and go to bed.

[@chloezub154]

Michigan here too! Just now accepting my curly hair! :-)

[@leslieobrien4690]

Ill try the tying technique. Like you my hair is fine and not the thickest and I like the way this gave you great lift in the front.

[@giada6811]

I’m looking for a new gel and I loooved how your hair turned out! What kind of gels do you like?

[@kdean1821]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one that uses their toilet to help plop

[@mackenzieleippi]

My gosh your hair is gorgeous! I subscribed :)

[@georgeparasol8674]

I just cut my wavy hair into a bob and I am trying to manage it and define it. Definitely trying this again to see if it works. I wasn't using the right shampoo and conditioner last year. My hair came out oily every time and after I changed it I was fine. A year has passed and I cut it so I hope this works.

[@chrishazzoo]

A lifesaving, or hair saving video for me. I have been tempted to chop it all off all year. Ten years ago my curly hair was so easy to get my curls. My curls used to be pencil sized when I would go out. My hair has changed again, so my old techniques don't work any longer. I will definitely try this when I can find my long hair towel. I may have to get a longer one. What blow dryer and diffuser did you use? I used to dry my hair using a small space heater that had just a slight bit of air flow. I could never get a diffuser to stop frizzing my hair. Your blow dryer also sounded quiet like my heater does. Thank you for the video.

[@DARLINSAYS]

Thank you. I was wondering if I could plop overnight. This is exciting and I’m going to try this.

[@glorious6779]

Wow!! Incredible. Looks amazing.

[@zelipautu]

now I know how to handle my problematic hair, I will never straighten again

[@TheCleanCurl]

Good for you!!

[@elcharlton]

Thanks for the advise, from a night shower-er, and lazy morning styler (and I love diffusing). I think my hair is very similar to yours (thin hair, top curls lik like yours, but my underneath curls are very limp, nearly non-existent). I'd like to know the products you use.

[@brittanybadal3721]

This was so helpful and your curls look beautiful! I’ve been plopping with a T-shirt and my biggest problem is the front of my hair ending up flat. Which products do you use and what type of towel is it? Thanks!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Brittany Badal totally! The front is my biggest issue too! The link is in my profile it’s by Lakeshore Dry Goods :)

[@Plantsandmusicandyarn]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who does this. 😂

[@christianamarie8574]

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one using the toilet seat to help with plopping...🤣🤣🤣👌

[@elizabethian2001]

You have beautiful skin. Thanks for the great tutorial.

[@anitaj6071]

I do plop but never at night. I’ve read it can cause mildew issues if you have high porosity hair. It’s takes so long for my hair to dry that keeping it plopped all night would definitely cause issues! I wish it was an option because I do tend to shower at night rather than the morning.

[@christinemadrazo6755]

Brava!! I just came across your channel and subscribed. Thanks for sharing.

[@carabenfield]

Aaah, your hair color is gorgeous!!

[@smallfootprint2961]

I always heard that going to bed with wet hair can make it moldy. It looks beautiful.

[@karenwelch5704]

your curls are gorgeous

[@saraigonzaga393]

So glad I found this video, my hair is so similar to yours. I don’t have a lot of it but it’s wavy and a bit frizzy. I’ve also never thought to use a pick. Thank you so much! ☺️

[@yarekim5932]

It looks beautiful .

[@taylorburge3223]

I literally plop every night when my hair is dry and I use a 100% cotton tee shirt turned inside out cause my hair doesn’t dry completely when I plop with my hair wet and then my roots end up looking weird cause I have a center part so I always do it when my hair is dry and I have wavy hair

[@shamimjafari]

I think we have a similar type of curl, also I love your hair color.

[@RealisticMon]

You skin is so perfect!!

[@saraleblanc2853]

Looked up this towel as I like the size but curious if you know how often they restock (or maybe they’ll reply)...

[@TheCleanCurl]

Sara LeBlanc so this print is sold out but they have another option and in a couple weeks they will be restocked!

[@sunrisebliss6694]

Hi Sara! Thanks for your interest and I'm sorry we're just seeing this now. We change up the prints often and rarely repeat a print (but the gray/stripe, flamingo and blue floral prints have been exceptions). We try to keep 3-5 prints in stock.

[@donnanelson9181]

I think your hair is gorgeous.

[@michellevictoria9081]

Loved, Loved, Loved your results!

[@TheCleanCurl]

Michelle Victoria thank you so much!!!

[@valeriesaldana4838]

Try using a cream in lieu of gel... a texture cream made for your curls but will help hold the curls and smells great! My favorite for my fine/wavy hair is Loma- Calming Cream for anti-frizz :)

[@TheCleanCurl]

Creams don’t do so well on my hair. Many weigh my hair down. I will use serums tho!

[@valeriesaldana4838]

I have very fine wavy hair so TRUST I totally get it! I’ll have to try your product out too 🤗

[@luckyDancer100]

Wouldn’t this be a bad idea for someone with seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff? Leaving it damp all night?

[@agapeemenee]

... what the FUCK!!!???! When I plop my hair, whether it’s for half an hour or 2 hours, I’m a frizzy mess. Your hair looks AMAZING.
