Whether or not you’ve heard or seen the term ‘doop’ on TikTok, we’re fairly sure you’ll understand its meaning once you know what it’s short for.
Doop is a variation on the popular term ‘dupe’ – which is short for ‘duplicate’.
It has become increasingly used by influencers who share outfit ideas and designer ‘dupes’ or ‘doops’ – that is, items which look the same as the designer version but are much cheaper or much more accessible.
So, a ‘doop’ on TikTok is a copy. And it doesn’t just refer to products!
Ways That ‘doop’ Can Be Used on TikTok
In addition to the use of the word ‘doop’ as a copied product, the term could also be used to describe…
- An account or profile which replicates the theme or style of another
- A homemade recipe which is designed to replicate a popular dish at a restaurant
It can even be used as part of a parody, poking fun at influencers who share designer ‘doops’ by making fun of them with random items that users claim to be duplicates.
Suffice to say, while ‘doop’ may be an unfamiliar term, the concept of a duplicate is something that most users will be aware of to some degree.
