Hair design is a temporary change in form, texture, and which other factor?

• A. Direction
• B. Length
• C. Color
• D. Volume

Answer: (A)

In hair design, you shape the style by altering form, texture, and direction. Form is the overall shape you create, and texture refers to the surface quality—whether the hair is straight, wavy, or curly. The third element, direction, is about which way the hair is guided and how it flows around the head. Controlling direction creates movement, balance, and a finished silhouette—like directing strands to fall away from the face or toward a particular angle to enhance the shape.

Length, color, and volume can be adjusted in styling, but they describe different attributes rather than the flow of the hair. The concept here emphasizes how the hair moves in space, which is what direction captures.
