What angle is the hair held for on base placement?

  1. 45 degrees forward

  2. 90 degrees straight up

  3. 45 degrees down

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: 45 degrees forward

When placing hair on base, it is important to consider the direction and angle at which the hair is held. In this case, 45 degrees forward is the correct angle. Option B, 90 degrees straight up, would create a flat result. Option C, 45 degrees down, would create a more vertical result. Option D is incorrect as there is a specific angle that should be used for on base placement. It is important to hold the hair at a 45 degree angle forward to achieve the desired result.
