Question 1

Which roller type would a hairstylist use to create maximum volume and lift at the root?

Accepted Answer

Velcro self-gripping rollers placed on-base

Answer

Velcro rollers placed directly on-base grip the hair at the scalp and direct the root upright as it dries, creating maximum lift and volume.

Question 2

What effect does using the 'cool shot' button on a blow dryer have on the finished style?

Accepted Answer

It blasts cold air to close the cuticle and lock the style in place

Answer

The cool shot releases a burst of cool air that closes the raised cuticle scales opened by heat, helping to set the style and add shine.

Question 3

What is the 'S-wave' technique when using a flat iron?

Accepted Answer

Alternating the angle of rotation while gliding the iron down to create a wave pattern

Answer

The S-wave technique involves rotating the flat iron forward and backward in alternating directions as it moves down the section, producing a continuous wave.

Question 4

How should hair be sectioned when performing a roller set for an even, uniform result?

Accepted Answer

Into sections that match the diameter of the roller being used

Answer

Sections should be no wider or longer than the roller's diameter so the hair wraps neatly without overlapping, producing uniform curl size.

Question 5

When backcombing to create volume, where should the technique be applied to avoid visible teasing?

Accepted Answer

On the underlayer beneath the top surface so the smooth surface conceals it

Answer

Applying backcombing to the under layers and then smoothing the top layer over it hides the teasing while maintaining the volume it creates.
