The overlap (croquignole) technique produces which result?

• A. Straight and smooth
• B. Undulating waves and curls
• C. Tightly compacted coils
• D. Frizz and flyaways

Answer: (B)

The overlap croquignole wrap creates a wave-driven curl pattern by wrapping hair from the ends toward the scalp with layers overlapping on the rod. This stacking causes the hair to form multiple directional bends along the strand, producing undulating waves and curls rather than a straight, smooth result. The overlapping layers concentrate curl formation at different parts of the strand, giving movement and texture. Frizz, flyaways, or tightly compacted coils would come from different wrap styles or processing issues, not from this overlapping approach.
