Do your bouncy, wet curls lose most of their definition as they dry? Suddenly hair can make a big difference, improving volume and definition while reducing annoying frizz. The best part is, all you need is an old T-shirt and 20 minutes of T-shirt popping to have some good hair days ahead of you!

How to Puff Your Hair With a T-Shirt for Perfect Waves

Read on to learn how to plop curly hair, how to use the plop method for wavy and short curly hair, and how to plop hair overnight.

Plopping is the method of drying wet curly hair by stacking it on top or on your head in a t-ship wrap. When you loosen your curly hair during the air-drying phase, the heavy, wet curls will stretch under their own weight; Likewise, a classic towel wrap will leave the curls stretched and uneven. At the same time, popping with a cotton T-shirt allows your curls to dry in a curled shape on top of your head, maximizing their definition and volume at the roots.

A cotton fabric absorbs excess water very well and does not cause split ends or frizz (which is what regular towels normally do). Because everyone has an old cotton T-shirt with them and it is easy to tie the sleeves in a knot, a T-shirt flop has become the most popular option. However, you can also use a cotton pillowcase or microfiber cloth to fluff the hair.
