 Hey Co-Friends, I'm Bianca Renee and you're watching Bianca Renee Today and today I'm going to try something that's pretty trendy on social media right now which is called net plopping. Net plopping is a different version of plopping or wet plopping. Probably should have made a video on plopping before I made this variation of plopping video. But I did make a plopping video on TikTok and Instagram so if you have decided not to follow me then you must not want all the curly hair tips. So plopping is a styling technique where you put your stylers in your hair, you flip your head over into a t-shirt, tie up the t-shirt and let all of your hair sit on the very top of your head creating more definition and more volume. It's the only way I would ever suggest sleeping with wet hair if you absolutely have to. So net plopping is the same concept but we're going to be putting all of our hair into a net. I'm proud to say that net plopping was kind of invented by one of my curl friends Penny Tovar. If you don't follow her, follow her on YouTube and Instagram because she is hilarious. I really want her to get to 1 million subscribers but she just decided one day that she wanted to plop but she wanted her hair to be able to breathe and air dry faster in a net. So she uses a wig cap. Wig caps do usually have a little hole at the top so she must have tied it but I also saw my friend Hi Felicia use fishnets instead. So for my net plopping experiment today I'm going to be trying it with fishnets. You can get these off of Amazon and I just like that it's a little bit bigger and you can just tie this up at the top. So without further ado, let's get started. Today's video is sponsored by Curlsmith so I'll be using all of their products but even if this wasn't sponsored I'd probably still be using their products. But you want to start off with freshly washed hair. I use the detox kit by Curlsmith. This has three different steps in it. So with the Curlsmith scalp recipe you want to start off with step one which is their super slip prebiotic primer. It's a pre-washed treatment for all tear types and scalp types. The main reason that I love to use this primer is because it has fermented rice water which you guys might know from the DIY videos going around that rice water is really good for hair growth. So I personally love that I'm getting the rice water treatment without having to actually make rice water. But with the primer you do not rinse it out. You leave it in and then go directly to the Wash and Scrub Detox Probiotic which is step two. It's a clarifying scrub shampoo for all hair types. Another popular DIY thing that smells horrible that I really don't have the energy to do. So I love that the apple cider vinegar is in this shampoo. And the last step is the postbiotic calming conditioner. This has hyaluronic acid, peppermint oil, lavender, tea tree. So you really feel that nice tingly feeling on your scalp letting you know that it is getting a nice clean. And the fact that it has hyaluronic acid in it which is just going to give us so much moisture. Every time I use the scalp recipe line my scalp feels amazing and my curls feel clean yet hydrated. So now that my hair is nice and clean I'm now going to style my hair using the Curlsmith Style and Slay Holiday Kit. I wanted to share this with you guys. If you guys are looking for an awesome Christmas gift for anybody that you know with curly hair because you get three amazing stylers in it. The Hold Me Softly which is a soft hold cream styler. The Curl Defining Styling Souffle which has a medium hold and it's kind of like a jelly consistency. Or the In Shower Style Fixer which is their strong extreme hold gel. I personally love all three of them. They all work great even individually. But today I'm going to try a new little cocktail for the first time. I'm going to grab the Hold Me Softly Style Bomb as step one. Now for a little bit of hold I'm going to add one of the gels on top. I have recently tried the Souffle and that was amazing. But I haven't tried a cocktail with the In Shower Style Fixer yet. So I'm going to try it today for the first time. We're doing a lot of experimenting today. Now technically I'm already breaking the rules because when you use the In Shower Style Fixer it says to apply literally like in the shower. That's why it's called the In Shower Style Fixer. But the main point is to apply it on soaking wet hair. So I need to re-soak my hair because I did do my makeup first. Trying to be cute and whatnot for y'all. And the In Shower Style Fixer gel works amazing even when you don't cocktail it. It just has a really, really strong hold. So just be prepared for that level 10 hold. Could we take a moment just to take in how long my hair has gotten? Yeah, I also think that's because of Girl Smith. So grabbing the Hold Me Softly Style Bomb which is a styling cream for curly and wavy hair. Oh, it smells amazing. And I'm going to smooth this all on my hair. You might get better results if you section, but I'm a two-section type of girl. I forgot that a little goes a long way so you really don't have to use as much as I just did. What the smells like, it just smells so good. It has like its own signature Curl Smith smell. It has rosemary oil, apricot, smashed avocado, squeezed olives. Like it sounds delicious. Now I'm going to add my gel, which is the In Shower Style Fixer Styling Gel for Curly and Coily Hair Stronghold High Definition, definitely anti-frizz. So I'm going to grab about that much, rub it together. And the reason why I wanted to use a stronghold gel is because when you're plopping your air drying, and this is the quickest air drying styling product that I own. So if I ever want really good day one hair and I want that cast to form immediately, this is what I will grab. Okay, so now that all these stylers are now applied, the curls are already looking very defined, let's start net plopping. So I'm going to grab my tights, my fishnets, and I'm going to plop all of my hair inside here somehow. Okay. So let my curls over, open up the tights, and then just plop the curls. See how we look? Oh yeah. Sexy. Kind of shake it so they all go on top. Then I'm going to do a little crisscross, and then gently tie it around. Just like that. So now I'm going to let this sit for a little bit, then I'm going to come back and diffuse. And I'm back. It's been about at least 30 minutes. But I did notice that my friends usually just plop for like 10 or 15 minutes just to get some definition and some height on the top of their head. And then they just diffuse. So I'm going to start diffusing now. I do have the new Dyson. So this might be very quick, but I'm going to diffuse a little bit in the net, and then I'm going to take it out to diffuse some more. Here we go. Get a little dry. Let's see how it looks when we take it out. Like it does when I don't plop. I don't know. Let's keep diffusing and see what happens. So here we go. Here are the final results. I love how my hair looks when I use curl smith products, period. But I do think that net plopping might have made a little bit more shrinkage. My hair looks a little bit shorter than normal because I think it was scrunched up. My hair doesn't look as elongated as it normally does. And I'm not sure if I'm getting like extreme volume from it. My hair isn't completely flat on my scalp. So that's good. If you have type 2 hair, type 3 big loose curls, I can definitely see how this could create more definition. But for me, necessary. But if you're just looking for beautiful curls, definitely check out the curl smith style and sleigh holiday kit. I actually have a promo code for you guys. So not only is this valued at $36 and it's only priced at $25. I have a 20% off promo code. So if you use my code, you can get all three stylers at an even more discounted price. But what about you?
