Cranked to an almost comical degree of correctness, authenticity, or formality — the kind of proper that makes regular proper look casual. Someone who is hyper proper might respond to a meme with fully punctuated paragraphs, iron their gym kit, or insist on proper grammar in a group chat. The tone is usually amused rather than critical. It describes intensity of authenticity past the point of normal, where the commitment to doing things right becomes its own defining personality trait.

She's hyper proper about her skincare routine — twelve steps, no exceptions, not even at 3am.
