Illinois Cosmetology Practice Exam

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.
