Partial perms are designed to

• A. Position new texture only where it is desired
• B. Change the entire head texture
• C. Speed up processing time
• D. Remove curl completely

Answer: (A)

Partial perms are designed to place new texture only where it is desired. This approach targets specific sections of the hair to create definition, volume, or movement in those areas while leaving the rest of the hair with its natural texture and length. By treating select zones, you can shape the overall style with controlled curl and pattern, blending smoothly into the existing hair without overprocessing. While it can save time compared to a full-head perm, the main idea is layering texture where needed, not changing the entire head. They don’t remove curl or alter texture across the whole head—that would be a different, full-head treatment.
