Why are graduated/uniform layers used in a wig?

  1. To add volume

  2. To introduce vibrant colors

  3. To remove bulk

  4. To add length

The correct answer is: To remove bulk

Graduated/uniform layers are used in wigs to remove bulk and create a more natural and even appearance. This technique involves cutting the hair at different lengths throughout the wig, creating layers that blend together seamlessly. Option A, adding volume, would typically involve adding more hair to the wig rather than cutting it. Option B, introducing vibrant colors, is a separate process from layering and is achieved through dyeing or coloring the hair. Option D, adding length, can be achieved through extensions or other methods and does not necessarily require layering.
