All perm wraps begin by dividing the hair into what?

• A. Panels
• B. Sections
• C. Pieces
• D. Divisions

Answer: (A)

The main idea being tested is that perm wraps begin by laying out large, planful divisions of the hair called panels. Establishing panels first creates the overall framework and direction for the wrap, helping you distribute density and control the curl pattern across the head. Once the panels are in place, you then subdivide each panel into smaller sections to wrap around the rods precisely. So, panels serve as the initial structural divisions, guiding how the rest of the wrap is planned. The smaller subdivisions within each panel are called sections, which is why sections come after panels in the process. Pieces or divisions aren’t the standard terms used for the starting division in perm wrapping.
