To determine the hair's texture, density, porosity, and elasticity, the barber performs a?

  1. Hair cut

  2. Hair analysis

  3. Hair wash

  4. Hair mapping

The correct answer is: Hair analysis

One reason the B (hair analysis) is the best answer is because hair texture, density, porosity, and elasticity are all characteristics that can only be determined through careful examination and analysis of the hair. By cutting the hair (option A), the barber may change the texture and density, skewing the results. Similarly, washing the hair (option C) may alter the porosity and elasticity. Hair mapping (option D) may be part of the analysis process, but it alone cannot determine all four characteristics. Therefore, B is the most accurate and comprehensive choice.
