Question: 1 / 50

How is the hair held for 1/2 off base placement?

45 degrees down

Straight down

90 degrees straight up

When styling hair with a 1/2 off base placement, the hair is held at a 90 degree angle straight up from the head. This allows for maximum volume and lift at the roots. Holding the hair at a 45 degree angle down (option A) would create a flatter look, while holding it straight down (option B) would result in a more tapered appearance. Holding the hair straight forward (option D) would not provide enough lift at the roots. It is important to pay attention to the angle and direction in which the hair is held in order to achieve the desired style.
