Cake is a curl whip, I think it's fluffier than a mousse. That side looked good on you, but I do agree, curls will loosen by end of day. That happens to mine with the Cake brand. Which gel do you like to use?
Thank you! It's labeled as a curl whip "mousse" and has all the ingredients that would make it a mousse. The "whip" part just sounds like marketing since they have a dessert theme to their products (ie whipped cream lol). My favorite gel is flaxseed gel! It's cheap, leaves no residue, and has a pretty strong hold. I also like Kinky Curly Curling Custard, Uncle Funky's, and Curlsmith in-shower style fixer (can be a little heavy).
Try AG Mousse Gel!! I have fine low density hair and i use some TreLuxe serum and then AG Mousse Gel. That Sh*t has HOLD & is light. I find that it feels weird until it is COMPLETELY dry. Also the plopping you did is Microplopping. LOVE the hairspray tip!! Looking for ones that have some PVP copolymer helps. ALSO, if you have hair you just cant protect at night, some hairspray over dry hair leaves it nice the next morning. Just SOTC.
Your hair looks really pretty and it's getting so long. My hangup about all mousses is that they contain petroleum products and I don't feel good with the idea of applying them on my body. It just does not sound safe to me, so I have decided to avoid them.
Thank you! And yes, that's true. I'm happy you mentioned this bc I had clips that I was going to insert showing the ingredients of both products. Of course, being me and feeling rushed to get this video out, I forgot to include those clips *sighhhhh* LOL but Cake Mousse actually has quite a bit of petroleum derivatives in its ingredients, and that is something people should be aware of.
@@tiffanymcnerlin157 it sad that petroleum products are so demonised. Its one of the most researched products and is cleaned up for skin and hair purposes.
@@presleymelrosegaming7785 No. Micro is referring to SMALL plopping - you take it up to your roots, scrunch, let it down. Regular plopping also uses a microfiber towel but you leave it up for like 20 minutes.
Btw all of these products are CG approved (I think lol) if you follow the cgm :)
Girl your eyebrows look great.
Thank you! 😍🙏

The dry plopping that you're doing is called "micro plopping"
Haha thank you! I knew it wasn't right, but I alwayssss call it dry plopping 😂
This is something we called scrunch drying in the 80s. I think micro plopping is just a new name for something that's been around for a while.
They call it micro plopping instead of scrunch plopping because you use a MICROfiber towel
