What characteristic defines a spiral perm wrap?

  1. Hair wrapped perpendicular to the rod

  2. Hair wrapped at an angle other than perpendicular to the rod

  3. Hair is not wrapped around a rod

  4. Hair is wrapped without any chemicals

The correct answer is: Hair wrapped at an angle other than perpendicular to the rod

A spiral perm wrap is defined by the hair being wrapped at an angle other than perpendicular to the rod. This creates a spiral effect in the hair, giving it a more natural and flowing appearance. The other options are incorrect because A describes a straight wrap, C is not a wrap at all, and D does not pertain to any wrapping technique. Therefore, B is the only option that accurately describes a spiral perm wrap.
