What does over direction mean in hair cutting?

  1. Cutting the hair at standing position

  2. Pulling hair away from its natural fall

  3. Directing all hair to one point

  4. Using the comb to direct hair

The correct answer is: Pulling hair away from its natural fall

Over direction refers to pulling the hair away from its natural fall, which can create tension on the hair and cause it to lay differently. Choice A is incorrect as standing position refers to the position of the hairdresser, not the direction of the hair. Choice C is incorrect as directing all hair to one point is often done during layering, not over direction. Choice D is incorrect as using the comb to direct hair is a common technique used before cutting, but does not necessarily refer to over direction.
