    The most common neutralizer for an alkaline permanent wave is 

    • H2O2

    • Guanidine

    • Sodium bromide

    • H2O

    Correct Answer
    A. H2O2
    Explanation
    The correct answer is H2O2. In alkaline permanent wave processes, the hair is treated with a reducing agent to break the disulfide bonds in the hair. This process creates a new shape in the hair. After this, a neutralizer is applied to re-establish the disulfide bonds and set the new shape. H2O2, also known as hydrogen peroxide, is commonly used as a neutralizer in alkaline permanent wave processes. It helps to oxidize and neutralize any remaining reducing agent, ensuring the hair retains the desired shape and texture.

    A mild perm requiring the application of heat for an internal source:

    • Ammonium thioglycolate

    • Endothermic

    • Guanidine

    • Exothermic

    Correct Answer
    A. Exothermic
    Explanation
    An exothermic reaction is one that releases heat. In the context of a mild perm requiring the application of heat for an internal source, an exothermic reaction would be more suitable. This is because the heat generated by the reaction would help in the process of perming the hair. Ammonium thioglycolate and guanidine are both chemicals used in hair perming, but guanidine is known to be endothermic, meaning it absorbs heat rather than releasing it. Therefore, the correct answer is exothermic.

    Explanation
    Hydrogen bonds are the weakest bonds in the hair. These bonds form between the hydrogen atoms of one hair strand and the oxygen or nitrogen atoms of another hair strand. They are easily broken by water or heat, which is why hair can be easily manipulated and styled. Disulfide bonds, on the other hand, are strong bonds that contribute to the hair's structure and are not easily broken. Sulfide bonds and bearer bonds are not relevant to the structure of hair.

    Type of design line used to create length and height in a hair cut 

    • Curved lines

    • Horizontal lines

    • Diagonal lines

    • Vertical lines

    Correct Answer
    A. Vertical lines
    Explanation
    Vertical lines are used to create length and height in a hair cut. When the hair is cut using vertical lines, it helps to add length to the hair and create a sense of height. This is because the vertical lines visually elongate the hair and make it appear longer and taller. Horizontal lines, on the other hand, create a sense of width and diagonal lines add movement and texture. Curved lines are used to create softness and fluidity in a hair cut.

    A product used to increase adhesion on acrylic nails 

    • Base coat

    • Primer

    • Bonder

    • Aniline derivative

    Correct Answer
    A. Primer
    Explanation
    A primer is a product used to increase adhesion on acrylic nails. It is applied before the base coat to create a smooth and even surface for the nail polish to adhere to. It helps to prevent chipping and peeling of the nail polish, ensuring that it lasts longer. A bonder is also used to increase adhesion, but it is typically used in gel nail systems rather than acrylic nails. An aniline derivative is a type of chemical compound and is not directly related to nail products. Therefore, the correct answer is primer.

    • Croquignole

    • Piggyback

    • Spiral

    • Tiered

    Correct Answer
    A. Spiral
    Explanation
    The term "spiral" is the correct answer because it refers to the technique of rolling the hair from the scalp to the ends in a spiral shape. This technique creates tight, bouncy curls that are uniform in size and shape. The other options, croquignole, piggyback, and tiered, do not accurately describe the rolling technique used for creating spiral curls.

    A__________will allow a bald scalp to show through:

    • Cap wig

    • Capless wig

    • Postiche

    • Toupee

    Correct Answer
    A. Capless wig
    Explanation
    A capless wig is designed with open wefts or spaces between the hair strands, allowing the scalp to show through. This type of wig provides a more natural and breathable look, as it mimics the appearance of real hair growing from the scalp. Unlike a cap wig, which has a solid cap that covers the entire head, a capless wig is lighter and more comfortable to wear, making it an ideal choice for individuals who want their bald scalp to be visible. A postiche is a general term for any type of artificial hairpiece, and a toupee specifically refers to a small wig or hairpiece for men.
